出版社：Penguin 2002-11-1

简介：　　Building on the crucial insight that jokes use many of thesame mechanisms he had already discovered in dreams, Freuddeveloped one of the richest and most comprehensive theories ofhumor that has ever been produced. Jokes, he argues, provideimmense pleasure by allowing us to express many of our deepestsexual, aggressive and cynical thoughts and feelings which wouldotherwise remain repressed. In elaborating this central thesis, hebrings together a dazzling set of puns, anecdotes, snappyone-liners, spoonerisms and beloved stories of Jewish beggars andmarriage-brokers. Many remain highly amusing, while others throw avivid light on the lost world of early twentieth-centuryVienna.

简介：　　'Psychoanalytic treatment utilised the patient's capacity tolove and desire as a means to an end. The stuff of romance becamethe stuff of cure. When Freud is writing about technique inpsychoanalysis - and these papers [in "Wild Analysis"] representhis most significant contributions to the subject over threedecades of work - it is important to remember that he is talkingabout what a couple, an analyst and a so-called patient, can do ina room together. For better or worse' - Adam Phillips.
