Psychoanalysis and Feminism. A Radical Reassessment of Freudian Psychoanalysis
Juliet Mitchell, the professor of Cambridge University, deals with social problems in the book. These problems were raised by feminism; the author regards them in the light of the psychoanalytical theories of S. Freud and his followers. Shedding light upon dynamics of mutual relationships between two important trends of the 20th century Juliet Mitchell tries to overcome the biased attitude of the feminists against psychoanalysis. Despite resistance of the representatives of the orthodox feminism the book is one of the most important segments of the feminist thought today.
