Ebook: Beyond the Chains of Illusion: My Encounter with Marx and Freud

First published in 1962 Beyond the Chains of Illusion is Fromms landmark book about Marx and Freud. Here he delivers original readings of these hugely influential thinkers and, in doing so, offers us new ways of understanding the individual and society. Perhaps even more revealing than these readings is the insight we get into Fromms own thought and the political and social contexts in which he formed his ideas. Including a foreword by Fromms Literary Executor, Rainer Funk, this is unique introduction to Marx and Freud and also to Fromms life and thought.
