Abraham was fascinated by the various stages of psychosexual development, suggesting greater differentiation in libido development and postulating the connection between disturbance in psychosexual development and psychosis, which was later worked out by Freud. Freud regarded Karl Abraham as his 'best pupil' and eventually became his close friend and confidante." Inked name of ffep. Lightly faded spine with slightly bumped top fore-edge corners, and age-toned text block edges and endpapers, else, Pristine Interior.
