Ideas in Psychoanalysis is a series of essays which explain psychoanalytical concepts, their relevance to everyday life and their ability to illuminate the nature of human society and culture. Unlike other beasts of the garden, human beings learn to control their sexual and aggressive motions; to distinguish between parents, sexual partners and friends; to acquire a sense of the beautiful, and we call this 'civilisation'. Singh explains how we have developed these capacities - and argues for a sense of the moral sublime as the zenith of human development.
Kalu Singh came to England from India, and to Psychoanalysis via Chemistry, Philosophy, English and Education. He works as a Civil Servant and Sessional Counsellor in a University Service, and is the author of Guilt, also in this series.
