The Biography of Sigmund Freud Part 3 of 5

http://www.luxstock.net
Sigmund Freud (IPA: [ˈziːkmʊnt ˈfʁɔʏt]), born Sigismund Schlomo Freud (6 May 1856 23 September 1939), was an Austrian psychiatrist who founded the psychoanalytic school of psychology.[1] Freud is best known for his theories of the unconscious mind and the defense mechanism of repression and for creating the clinical practice of psychoanalysis for curing psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst. Freud is also renowned for his redefinition of sexual desire as the primary motivational energy of human life, as well as his therapeutic techniques, including the use of free association, his theory of transference in the therapeutic relationship, and the interpretation of dreams as sources of insight into unconscious desires. He was also an early neurological researcher into cerebral palsy. While of significant historical interest, many of Freud's ideas have fallen out of favor or have been modified by Neo-Freudians, although in the past ten years, advances in the field of neurology have shown evidence for many of his theories. Freud's methods and ideas remain important in clinical psychodynamic approaches. In academia his ideas continue to influence the humanities and some social sciences.

Freud projected results of his self analysis on the entire human race. Very presumptive and erroneous.

Freud is worshipped like Jesus. Why do humans worship others that are just searching?

[desasterz]

Freud was the first? Rubbish! Have any of you read Ecclesiastes?

@catra195 Hey thanks! I like to see credit go where credit is due. Often western scientist get the credit for "inventing" Ancient ideas from other cultures. I'm not saying they stole the ideas, just saying they were already there.

@catra195 I was about to write something similar about how buddhists beleive that when you are being reincarnated as a human you see many couples having sex. And you are attracted to them. You even choose your sex based on which you are attracted to more. They figured that out over 2000 years before freud. but what is nice about science is that it can prove these philosophies in day to day life.
