Topic Scope And Freshness
Key Notes
Freud's early patients are described as traumatized women whose symptoms followed abuse, and early Freud initially believed and advocated for them.
Jiang presents early Freud as a nuanced scientist who considered false-memory suggestion but concluded that repeated patient testimony supported real trauma.
Jiang offers a material explanation for Freud's reversal: Freud's patients were young women, but their fathers were often paying him.
Jiang argues that Freud likely knew many women were telling the truth but changed his story to protect his livelihood.
