Summary: '...as distinguished as it is much needed. A great amount of fresh material about the founder of psychoanalysis has come to light since Ernest Jones finished his monumental biography in the late 1950s, and Clark has made copious use of it. He has also utilized a wide range of sometimes unexpected sources to reveal Freud's impact on the contemporary world--an impact equaling that of Copernicus or Darwin.'
