Decline and Fall of the Freudian Empire Book

Freud's ideas have influenced almost every aspect of our lives, but have they been confirmed by experimental science? Did Freud say anything that was new or true?

He explores the heroic myths Freud created about his own originality and the hostility he encountered - myths repeated to this day by credulous disciples.
