The author returns to the origins of psychoanalysis in this study of hysteria, looking at Freud himself as a male hysteric and the case of 'Dora', which is so important for feminism, as well as more recent cases. She renews Freud's forgotten questions about how identity is formed and trouble through lateral sibling others, as well as in relation to parental figures. A fascinating new look ath the origins and future possibilities of human identity.
