The Homosexual Neuroses (1922)

By Wilhelm Stekel

Book Overview

The Homosexual Neuroses is a book written by William Stekel in 1922, which explores the psychological and psychoanalytic aspects of homosexuality. The book explores the idea that homosexuality is not a choice, but rather a neurosis or mental disorder that is caused by a variety of factors, including childhood experiences, family dynamics, and societal pressures. Stekel argues that homosexuality can be treated through psychoanalysis, and he provides case studies and examples of successful treatments. The book also examines the social and cultural attitudes towards homosexuality at the time, and the impact of these attitudes on individuals who identify as homosexual. Overall, The Homosexual Neuroses provides a comprehensive analysis of homosexuality from a psychoanalytic perspective, and offers insights into the complex and often misunderstood nature of this aspect of human sexuality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
