Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition

"Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition" by David Bakan is an in-depth exploration of the intersection between Freud's psychoanalytic theories and Jewish mystical thought, particularly Kabbalistic and Hasidic traditions. The book proposes that Freud's groundbreaking ideas in psychology were, in part, shaped by the mystical and spiritual currents within Jewish tradition.
