Todd Dufresne's Fifth Book Published

Dr. Todd Dufresne, Associate Professor and Chair of Lakehead's Philosophy Department, has just had his latest book published by Stanford University Press. 
 
Dufresne is a well-known critic of Freud and psychoanalysis.  Against Freud is his fifth book, and features interviews with some of the world's best critics of psychoanalysis.  Interested lay readers and many scholars remain mystified about the decline and death of psychoanalysis. This book rectifies the problem, making the 'case against Freud' very plain and, according to Dufresne, incontrovertible.
 
A precursor of Against Freud, Dufresne's Killing Freud, published by Continuum in 2003, was re-issued in 2006 with a new cover, and continues to sell well internationally. His 2000 Tales from the Freudian Crypt, also published by Stanford, is currently being translated into Japanese for a major academic publisher in Tokyo, Misuzu-Shobou.  Dufresne is currently busy with two new book projects: a SSHRC-funded work on the early history of trauma, and another on Freud's Future of An Illusion.  In addition, three of his most recent essays have just appeared or are forthcoming in three journals - Psychoanalysis and History, English Studies in Canada, and The European Legacy.
