A Most Dangerous Method: The Story of Jung, Freud, and Sabina Spielrein
A history of the early relationship between Jung and Freud told through Sabina Spielrein, who came to Jung first as a patient and then became his student, colleague and lover. According to the book, Jung broke off the affair for fear of scandal, and Spielrein, turning to Freud, unknowingly conveyed to him Jung’s private views of him and of psychoanalysis, which contributed to the split between the two men.
