Psycho-Analysts Analysed is a compelling critical examination of the burgeoning field of psychoanalysis during the early 20th century. Written by Peter McBride, this work offers a rigorous investigation into the theories and practices popularized by figures like Sigmund Freud and his contemporaries. McBride approaches the subject with a physician's eye, questioning the scientific validity and clinical applications of psychoanalytic methods that were then beginning to reshape the landscape of mental health and human understanding.

The book delves into the core tenets of the psychoanalytic movement, exploring concepts such as the unconscious mind, dream interpretation, and the role of sexuality in human behavior. McBride provides a balanced yet skeptical perspective, inviting readers to consider the limitations and potential pitfalls of these psychological frameworks. By analysing the analysts, the author seeks to demystify a complex and often controversial discipline, making it an essential read for those interested in the history of psychology and the evolution of psychiatric thought.
