Totem and Taboo Summary

Totem and Taboo by Sigmund Freud

Adducing evidence from primitive tribes, neurotic women, child patients traversing the oedipal phase, and speculations by Charles Darwin, James G. Frazer, and other modern scholars, Freud attempts to trap the moment that civilized life began. It stands as his most imaginative venture into the psychoanalysis of culture.
