Summary

"Heresy: Sandor Rado and the Psychoanalytic Movement" by Paul Roazen and Bluma Swerdloff delves into the controversial life and work of Sandor Rado, a psychoanalyst whose theories challenged orthodox Freudian concepts. The book explores Rado's break from Freud's influence and his establishment of a new school of thought, the "Adaptive Psychoanalysis," which focused more on the role of environment and behavior than on instinctual drives. Through extensive research and critical analysis, the authors highlight Rado’s impact on modern psychoanalytic theory and practice. This comprehensive biography is essential reading for anyone interested in psychoanalytic history, the evolution of mental health theory, and the shifting paradigms within the field.
