This work is a compilation of abstracts, keyed to all the psychoanalytic concepts found in the “Standard Edition of Freud”, edited by James Strachey. It consists of 176 double-column pages, featuring chapter-by-chapter, paper-by-paper, even letter-by-letter synopses of the 23-volume “Standard Edition of Freud”. It has been distilled under the joint auspices of the National Clearinghouse for Mental Health Information & the American Psychoanalytic Association. The work aims to make Freud’s writings doubly accessible to systematic scholarship by inclusion of 47 double-column pages of subject index.
