Biography
Charles Berg (1892-1957)
For the original publication:
'Can be recommended without hesitation as a most interesting and outstanding book on the subject of psycho-analysis.' – Medical Press
'Presumes no technical acquaintance with the subject ... remarkably clear ... easily readable. There is no article or book we know of which puts on record quite so clearly how psycho-analytic interviews are conducted, and it can be warmly commended.' – The Practitioner
'Dr Berg has done many of us a service by ringing up the curtain on the secret sessions of psycho-analysis. He does it cheerfully and competently, cleverly postponing his revelations, and presenting his tale with the skill of the natural story-teller.' – Lancet
