Book synopsis

One of the most original psychoanalysts after Freud, Karen Horney pioneered such now-familiar concepts as alienation, self-realization, and the idealized image, and she brought to psychoanalysis a new understanding of the importance of culture and environment. Karen Horney was born in Hamburg in 1885 and was educated in Berlin. She went to the United States in 1932 and in 1941 became one of the founders of the Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis and the American Institute for Psychoanalysis. In "Our Inner Conflicts", now reissued in a new format, Horney develops a dynamic theory of neurosis centred on the basic conflict among the attitudes of moving towards, moving against, and moving away from people.
