Freud by Michel Onfray
L'affabulation freudienne
A polemical dismantling of the psychoanalytic legend, this book argues that the discipline rests on mythmaking, suggestive techniques, and manipulated case histories rather than scientific evidence. Drawing on correspondence and archival sources, it portrays the movement’s founder as authoritarian and ethically compromised, with theories shaped by personal obsessions and cultural biases. It concludes by urging a turn toward materialist, empirically testable approaches to the mind in place of a quasi-religious therapeutic doctrine.
