Episode synopsis

The work of psychologist Sigmund Freud forms the basis of psychoanalysis, but his ideas have also profoundly altered the way we account for our own everyday behaviour and the behaviour of others. Brian Farrell, Reader in Mental Philosophy at Oxford, discusses some of Freud's revolutionary theories, and how they relate to the practice of psychoanalysis.
