"This volume presents the previously unpublished letters on one of America's most distinguished twentieth-century psychiatrists. Including a dozen photographs that place this giant in the context of the extraordinary company he kept, The Selected Correspondence of Karl A. Menninger, 1946-1965 not only extends and complements Menninger's other work but also illuminates his fundamental concerns, ideals, and philosophy during the twenty years from 1946-1965." "Menninger works through seminal ideas in these letters, presenting both preliminary formulations and, later, revisions, modifications, and defenses in response to exchanges with his correspondents. His correspondence with such prominent individuals as Anna Freud, Erik Erikson, and Ernest Jones also reveals their thinking on timely and controversial topics, providing an intellectual and social history of the period."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

"The fruit of a lifetime of thought, action, and experience, this book by Dr. Menninger and two of his associates describes the nature of the revolution in psychiatry and its connection with the work of Sigmund Freud."--Jacket.
Menninger argued that psychiatry was a science and that the mentally ill were only slightly different than healthy individuals.
