Freud’s influence continues to be enormous and pervasive. He gave us a new and powerful way to think about and investigate human thought, action and interaction. He made sense of ranges of experience generally neglected or misunderstood. And while one might wish to reject or argue with some of Freud’s particular interpretations and theories, his writings and his insights are too compelling to simply turn away. There is still much to be learned from Freud.
