Summary
Details

""The Homosexual Neurosis"" by William Stekel offers a groundbreaking exploration of homosexuality through the lens of early 20th-century psychoanalysis and psychiatry. This pivotal work delves into the complex relationship between sexual behavior, neurosis, and the psychological underpinnings of same-sex attraction. Stekel, a prominent figure in the development of psychoanalytic thought, examines homosexuality as a manifestation of deeper psychological processes.

This book, meticulously prepared for print republication, provides valuable insights into the historical understanding of human sexuality. It explores theories surrounding the causes and treatment of what was then termed ""homosexual neurosis."" Readers interested in the history of psychiatry, psychology, human sexuality, and LGBTQ+ studies will find this a fascinating and important contribution to the field. Discover the roots of contemporary thought on sexual identity in this enduring classic.
