Got some skeptic news items? Send them to us, and we’ll think about adding them. Book of the Week:What Freud Really Said: an Introduction to His Life and Thought, by David Stafford-Clark
“This book offers the most lucid overview available of Sigmund Freud, his legacy, and his place in our world. As the person responsible for the birth of psychoanalysis and one of the sharpest clinical minds of the 20th century, Freud continues to be one of the most influential thinkers of our time and one of the most controversial. For those interested in understanding the life and work of this seminal figure as well as the current debates that surround him, this book will prove an invaluable guide.”
