<br/><br/> Using Freud's letters, this book asserts that Freud, personally reluctant to face the sexual abuse of children, abandoned a valid scientific finding. The author argues that Freud's revised theory became the basis for the science of psychoanalysis and that this, therefore, needs re-examination.
