The Age of Insight
Description
With George Prochnik, Nobel Prize-winner Eric Kandel exquisitely bridges science, medicine, and art to show how the unconscious was exposed in 1900 Vienna. They discuss the development of psychology and the extraordinary intellectual environment that gave rise to both Klimt's artwork and Freud's theories.
