Publisher's Synopsis

Bi-Sexual Love: The Homosexual Neurosis is a book written by William Stekel and first published in 1922. The book explores the concept of bisexuality and homosexuality from a psychoanalytic perspective. Stekel argues that homosexuality is a form of neurosis that is caused by a failure to fully develop heterosexual desires and a fixation on the same-sex parent during childhood. He also suggests that bisexuality is a natural and common state, and that many people experience a range of sexual desires throughout their lives. The book includes case studies and clinical examples to support Stekel's theories, and provides a detailed analysis of the psychological and social factors that contribute to the development of sexual identity. Despite its controversial subject matter, Bi-Sexual Love: The Homosexual Neurosis was widely read and discussed in its time and remains a significant work in the history of psychoanalysis and LGBTQ+ studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
