Why Psychoanalysis? - European Perspectives: A Series in Social Thought and Cultural Criticism
Elisabeth Roudinesco
Why do some people still choose psychoanalysis -- Freud's so-called talking cure -- when numerous medications are available that treat the symptoms of psychic distress so much faster? Roudinesco tackles this difficult question, exploring what she sees as a "depressive society": an epidemic of distress being addressed only by an increasing reliance on prescription drugs.
