Summary: This original collection brings together the most important writings on the psychology of love by one of the great thinkers of the twentieth century.

Among the influential pieces included here are “On Female Sexuality,” “The Taboo of Virginity,” “A Child Is Being Beaten,” and the widely cited case history of the eighteen-year-old Dora, making The Psychology of Love essential reading for anyone who wants to understand Freud’s tremendous legacy."--Publisher's website.
