Freud : an illustrated biography / Corinne Maier, Anne Simon ; translation by J. Taboy.

Maier, Corinne, (author.). Simon, Anne, 1980- (illustrator.). Taboy, J., (translator.).

Summary:

Graphic novel. Using comics and illustrations to explore complex scientific ideas, this title is an engaging introduction to the history and ideas of a complex individual.
"As a boy Sigmund Freud dreamed of being an explorer, of discovering new lands and sailing the oceans. As an adult he set out to map a far stranger territory: the human mind. [In] this ... graphic novel, economist, historian, and psychoanalyst Corrine Maier explores the life and work of one of the twentieth century's most influential thinkers. Freud is the perfect introduction to the man's genius, his life, and his struggles with a revolutionary and divisive approach to the mind and its inner workings. Anne Simon spins this unique and captivating story into a seamless whirl of image and text, worthy of the master of psychoanalysis' most extraordinary cases." --Publisher description.
