"Freud 'is destined to remain among us as the most influential of 20th-century sages'"--New York Times
One of famed psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud's most prominent ideas was that of the id, the ego, and the super-ego--the three main factors behind the workings of the human mind. Freud claimed these components of the human psyche controlled all processes of personality, behaviors, and traits in a person.
