Freud is universally recognised as a pivotal figure in modern culture. Yet the man and his work continually attract scandal, outrage and scientific suspicion. Was he a psychological genius or a peddler of humbug Despite his atheism, did he invent a new religious cult Is he to blame for disguising the prevalence of sexual abuse Is there an Oedipus Complex Was he a drug addict A wittily illustrated glimpse behind the demonised myths to the heart of a red-hot debate.
Stephen Wilson is a practicing psychotherapist and Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. Oscar Zarate is one of the UK's leading graphic artists. He has illustrated numerous Introducing titles. His graphic novel A Small Killing won the Will Eisner Prize.
