Emotion and Spirit

Psychoanalysis with Freud as its founder has vehemently denied the value of religious belief. In this radical book re-issued with a new preface by the author and a foreword by Jon Stokes Neville Symington makes the case that both traditional religion and psychoanalysis are failing because they exist apart and do not incorporate each other's values. The controversial conclusion of this fascinating study is that psychoanalysis is a spirituality-in-the-world or a mature religion and inseparable from acts of virtue.
