Description

In Totem and Taboo, Sigmund Freud uses psychoanalysis as a basis for understanding how human societies are organized, particularly with regards to the prevention of incest. He focuses on the development of social taboos, the first being incest. A controversial book among numerous psychoanalysts and anthropologists, Totem and Taboo encourages reflection about groups and civilization.
