Confrontations With Myself: An Epilogue by Helene Deutsch

This is an insightful, tenderly written autobiography by one of the early mothers of Psychoanalysis. Born in Poland in 1884, Deutsch was a close student of Sigmund Freud: ironically she has been considered "more Freudian than Freud". It has been most helpful to learn about the human beings behind the theories. After a long standing prejudice against Freud, upon reading his works and learning from the lives of those around him, my view has softened. Strongly recommended for anyone interested in psychology or simply honest self reflection.
