Summary

Everyone knows Freud as the father of psychoanalysis, but most people know little about the 20 years (1876-1896) when he was primarily a neurologist and anatomist. Yet his "other, " neurological, life was the precursor to his psychoanalytic one, and perhaps an essential key to it. Scholars from a variety of disciplines and countries consider Freud's early scientific work and its importance for today's research.
