Maimonides and Psychoanalysis – Maimonides' Cure of Souls: Medieval Precursor of Psychoanalysis – By David Bakan,Dan Merkur and David Weiss

This book is fascinating. For those of us for whom the study of Maimonides has been rooted in history of thought or in systematic philosophy and theology, this book provides a psychotherapeutic and psychoanalytic reading of Maimonides. And, for those of us for whom study of Freud has been rooted in history of psychoanalysis, this book provides an insight into an important source for some of Freud's most radical ideas.
