Les Illusions de la Psychanalyse is a 1980 book about psychoanalysis by Jacques Van Rillaer, a Belgian psychoanalyst.
Reception
Les Illusions de la Psychanalyse received reviews in Revue Philosophique de Louvain in 1981,[1] and in Revue Philosophique de la France et de l'Étranger in 1982.[2] Psychologist Hans Eysenck praised the work in his Decline and Fall of the Freudian Empire (1985), writing that Van Rillaer had "lost his illusions" and "written an extremely illuminating book highly critical of the theories and practices of his colleagues." Eysenck, calling Van Rillaer's work a classic, noted with regret that it was available only in French.[3]
