Freud

Author: Ruth Sheppard
Publishing date: 2022
Featuring 150 images and documents—including diary extracts, personal notes, and otherexclusive items from London's Freud Museum—this insightful bio provides a glimpse into the mind of the “Father ofPsychoanalysis.” Sigmund Freud remains a towering figure whose therapeutic innovations, including the “talking cure,” free association, and dream interpretation, revolutionized our understanding of human thought and behavior. Freud: The Man, The Scientist, and the Birth of Psychoanalysis details the life of this iconoclastic genius, examining how he developed his famous theories. It explores Freud’s struggles with his own neuroses and how they led to his pioneering self-analysis, in which he refined his still-unproven techniques by applying them to himself.

The Reduced History of Tennis

Author: Richard Pendleton
Publishing date: 2006
This is the story of tennis as it's never been told before. It is a top-spinning compilation of sports reports, spoof correspondence and reminiscences about the gentleman and the players, the ladies and the ball-boys, the coaches and the gurus and the umpires and the line judges that have graced and disgraced the quintessential game of high summer. The clean aces, racket abuse, net cords, strawberries and cream, the on-court tantrums and the little white dresses that got the crowd oohing and ahhing in the fruity manner of Dan Maskell are amusingly recalled.
