Suffice it to say that, while working with patients with hysteria, he, at about the same time as Freud, came to the conclusion about the existence of the unconscious. He created an original theory of the occurrence of neurotic symptoms and developed a method for their treatment, which he called «psychological analysis».

He created an original theory of the occurrence of neurotic symptoms and developed a method for their treatment, which he called «psychological analysis». And in his mature years he tried to create a holistic theory of the psyche and personality of a person. This book is a record of lectures given to Janet in 1928 at the Paris College de France.
