Self-Analysis

Self-Analysis is one of Karen Horney's most important works, in which she argues that people can develop a deeper understanding of themselves and, under certain circumstances, use self-analysis as a tool for personal growth and psychological change.

The book explains how inner conflicts, anxiety, defence mechanisms and early experiences shape the way we perceive ourselves and others. In clear language and with practical examples, Horney guides readers to identify the patterns of thought and behaviour that hinder personal growth, encouraging a continuous process of self-reflection.

This book does not aim to replace psychotherapy, but to help individuals better understand their emotions, motives and inner conflicts. It is a valuable resource for psychology students, mental health professionals and any reader who wants to know themselves better and work on their personal growth.
