Bøger i Collected Works of Charles Berg serien

First published in 1948 Dr Berg had an extraordinary flair for presenting a difficult subject in a most realistic and attractive manner, without sacrifice of scientific essentials. In spite of its novel and entertaining method of exposition, the book covers a surprisingly wide field ¿ the whole field of clinical psychology ¿ and more.

First published in 1947, with a second edition in 1950, this is an illuminating description of a complete Freudian analysis of a single case. From the first interview to the last the reader¿s attention is engrossed with the almost-normal personality of the individual who is being analysed.

Originally published in 1951, the implications of this book are far wider and deeper than its title suggests. The book is really a psychiatric criticism of normality based upon a chosen item of typically normal behaviour. It is, however, written in a way that will be easily understood by every intelligent reader.

Originally published in 1955, in this book the author expounds his main thesis ¿ namely that our conscious pre-occupations, thoughts and behaviour are merely the products or "symptoms" of a process that is going on within us (basically a physiological process) of which we are totally unconscious.

Originally published in 1957, this book was a new departure in autobiographies. It is both enlightening and entertaining. From childhood to professional maturity it proceeds through economic difficulties, love and tribulation to science and general medical practice.

Originally published in 1958, there were widespread misconceptions about homosexuality. The purpose of this book was to bring into public light, the knowledge of the manifestations of the problem, so that they could be openly examined. Today it can be read in its historical context.

Originally published in 1959, the blurb read: `Dr Berg has made a comprehensive survey of the Wolfenden Report in regard to homosexuality and illustrated his comments with extracts from case material. ... and the book should be welcomed by all who seek to understand this controversial topic.'

First published in 1962, the original blurb reads: `This provocative book explores the whole range of human thought conduct and beliefs. Commencing with primitive man and his superstitions it goes on to study our present-day cultural institutions, customs, ritual and other behaviour upon which we pride ourselves. ...'
