For more than a decade before he introduced psychoanalysis to the world, Sigmund Freud's consuming passion was the study of the brain. However, with few exceptions, the fundamental clinical neuropsychological contributions to psychoanalysis have been largely overlooked, since most of Freud's writings in this area have been relegated to his ``prepsychoanalytic'' period. Today's researchers, who have begun to forge integrations between the brain sciences and psychoanalysis, primarily use the data of modern neuropsychology while neglecting the rich lode of Freud's own neuroscientific thought. FREUD'S BRAIN brings together the neuropsychologies of past and present to develop a comprehensive neuropsychodynamic model of psychoanalysis and personality theory.
