In this landmark book, the impulse toward self-destructiveness is examined as a misdirection of the instinct for survival, a turning inward of the aggressive behavior developed for self-preservation. "One of the most absorbing books I have read in recent years" (Joseph Wood Krutch, The Nation). Index.

It is amazing how small a proportion of the very extensive psychoanalytic literature is devoted to psychoanalytic technique and how much less to the theory of technique. otto FENICHEL NEARLY TWENTY YEARS HAVE ELAPSED SINCE THE LATE OTTO FENICHEL recorded these words of astonishment. The situation he described then still obtains, although training in psychoanalysis, including technique, has expanded manyfold. The formal teaching of psychoanalytic theory and practice was inaugurated in 1920 in Berlin. The New York Institute was founded in 1929, the Chicago Institute in 1932, and the Institute in which I now teach in 1938. Today there are fourteen such institutes in A merica, in addition to those of England, A ustria, Holland, Belgium, France, Germany, I taly, Sweden, Switzerland, I ndia, I srael, Japan, A rgentina, Brazil, and Chile. All over the world, in these small, hard-working units, psychoanalytic theory and practice are systematically presented by carefully selected teachers to carefully selected students.

In this landmark book, the impulse toward self-destructiveness is examined as a misdirection of the instinct for survival, a turning inward of the aggressive behavior developed for self-preservation. Karl Augustus Menninger (July 22, 1893 - July 18, 1990), born in Topeka, Kansas, was an American psychiatrist and a member of the famous Menninger family of psychiatrists who founded the Menninger Foundation and the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas. During his career, Menninger wrote a number of influential books. In his first book, The Human Mind, Menninger argued that psychiatry was a science and that the mentally ill were only slightly different than healthy individuals. In The Crime of Punishment, Menninger argued that crime was preventable through psychiatric treatment; punishment was a brutal and inefficient relic of the past. He advocated treating offenders like the mentally ill. His subsequent books include The Vital Balance, Man Against Himself and Love Against Hate.

(For many years the name Karl Menninger has been almost sy...)
For many years the name Karl Menninger has been almost synonymous in America with the science and practice of psychiatry. his book "The Human Mind" introduced that branch of medicine to the American public in 1930. In the present book, Dr. Menninger attempts to apply psychiatry to a worldwide affliction, the depression, gloom, discouragement and apprehensiveness which are so prevalent. The word "sin" has almost disappeared from our vocabulary, but the sense of guilt remains in our hearts and minds. The prisoners punished in our jails are a small minority of all the offenders; "all we like sheep have gone astray". While a few deplore their guilt, many remain blandly indifferent or vaguely depressed or bitterly accusatory of others. Are these states of illness? Not until the Epilogue, which he calls a deferred preface, does the author tell us how he came to write this book and how he has come from many years of experience to consider moral values an essential aspect of psychiatry. If, as he believes, mental health and moral health are identical, the recognition of the reality of sin offers to the suffering, struggling, anxious world a real hope not of belated treatment but of prevention. This task enlists the physician, the psychiatrist, the minister, the lawyer, the editor, the teacher, and the mother in a common army - an army against self-destruction and world destruction. Dr. Karl Menninger founded and with his father and brother - later, his son and nephews - developed a psychiatric center in Topeka, Kansas, know now all over the world.
