Numerous have been the attempts to unveil what Andrew Lang called the Secret of the Totem, a question upon which Sir J. G. Frazer once said he had changed his views repeatedly and was prepared to change them with every new piece of evidence. Dr Rheim, a young Hungarian anthropologist, whose work had already attracted the attention of English authorities, surveys totemism in the light of psychoanalytic knowledge in his book Social Anthropology originally published in 1925. Freud and Rivers are pioneers in this field but Rheims work is the first attempt to submit a specific anthropological question to detailed psychoanalytical investigation. In result, it will be seen that the application of the investigations of unconscious mental processes in the individual to a study of the Australian native give a profound meaning and universal psychologic significance to customs whose understanding has hitherto baffled scholarship. The book is not a translation; it was written by Dr Rheim in English. Due to modern production methods, it has not been possible to include some fold-out maps within the book. Any purchasers of the book will be able to receive a free pdf of the relevant pages by contacting Routledge Customer Services. https://www.routledge.com/contacts/customer-service
