A TRIP THROUGH THE MIND...(Freud and friends...)

Sigmund Freud (p. 677) was one of the first people to really dig into the mind.  He is known as the "father of psychoanalysis" and was a major proponent of dream analysis.  While not really a figure of the First Industrial Revolution, Freud was definitely a major part of the Second Industrial Revolution, with his major works being released in 1900 in a book called The Interpretation of Dreams.  He also believed that who we are can be traced back to your experiences in childhood.  He was also the first person to define what the "id", "ego" and "superego" are.

What are you thinking?  Why are you thinking it?  What does it MEAN?!  A lot of people think that Freud is as crazy as the people he studied, but he did come up with a lot of interesting concepts, many of which are still being used today in the fields of psychology and sociology.

These tests are NOT Freud's specifically, but they are based on concepts and theories that Freud taught.
