Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality by Sigmund Freud?Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality (German: Drei Abhandlungen zur Sexualtheorie), sometimes titled Three Contributions to the Theory of Sex, is a 1905 work by Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, in which the author advances his theory of sexuality, in particular its relation to childhood.Freuds book covered three main areas: sexual perversions childhood sexuality and puberty.The Sexual AberrationsFreud began his first essay, on The Sexual Aberrations, by distinguishing between the sexual object and the sexual aim - noting that deviations from the norm could occur with respect to both.
