Buddhist & Freudian Psychology Paperback / softback
by Padmasiri de Silva
Paperback / softback
Description
This book presents comparative perspectives on the nature of mind, motivation, conflict, anxiety and suffering, as well as the therapeutic management of these problems, in both the writings of Sigmund Freud and the discourses of the Buddha.
The nature of the instinct of sexuality, ego instinct and the death instinct in Freud are compared to parallel concepts in Buddhism.
This fourth edition has been revised and updated and looks at the emerging dialogue between Buddhism and psychotherapy.
It includes new chapters on the nature of the unconscious, the therapeutic basis of early Buddhist psychology, and the Freudian search for the ideal therapeutic model.
