"The world famed psychologist, discoverer of a new world of the human mind, has summed up in one volume the entire subject of psychoanalysis in simple popular language so that every intelligent man and woman might benefit from the discoveries of the Master himself."--from the flap. Riviere was translation editor of the International Journal of Psycho-Analysis from its inception in 1920 until 1937. In 1921 she worked with Freud and his daughter Anna Freud, Ernest Jones, James Strachey and Alix Strachey on the Glossary Committee, and translating Freud's work into English. In his biography of Freud Peter Gay observed that "her renderings retained more of Freud's stylistic energy than any others."
