Brunswick, Ruth Mack, 1897-1946

[Widely respected as a brilliant, thorough, and effective clinician, Ruth Mack Brunswick's work significantly explored and extended Freud's theories. One of her most notable early papers concerned her continuing treatment in 1926-27 of one of Freud's most famous cases, the Wolf Man. Her professional publications, though few, were of classic quality and contributed greatly to the full development of Freudian theory--particularly with regard to questions of childhood trauma and parental attachment.]
