Book excerpt: A new translation from the original German manuscript of Freud's 1926 Inhibition, Symptoms and Anxiety, where he describes his theories on psychological disorders and anxieties manifest in physical symptoms, tracing their origins back to subconscious processes. He suggests that these symptoms are often the result of repressed desires or traumatic experiences, and that the process of psychoanalysis can help individuals work through these underlying issues, writing: "The symptom is the substitution for the satisfaction of an instinctual impulse, which has been inhibited and has not reached consciousness." This edition includes an introduction by the translator on the philosophic differences between Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, a glossary of Freudian Psychological terminology and a timeline of Freud’s life & works.
