Sigmund Freud by Kathleen Krull


Krull, Kathleen. Sigmund Freud. New York: Penguin Group, 2006.

Illustrated by Boris Kulikov

Kathleen Krull will take readers into the life of Sigmund Freud from his childhood through what he accomplished in the world of science. Krull discusses with readers how he invented psychoanalysis and his steps to getting to that point. However, she doesn’t hold back on her facts. Readers will also be informed of his study of cocaine, problems with women, and even discuss his final disease. Krull will capture her audience with her writing as she describes the life of a man that truly made a impact on our world of science today. To add a small touch to this book, Kulikov does a fabulous job with a few of his drawings that portray Freud. This book is a great addition to any library’s biography section.
