Focusing on the psychological underpinnings of everyday mistakes, Freud explores the phenomenon of slips of the tongue and memory lapses in this influential 1901 work. Filled with engaging anecdotes, the text avoids complex jargon, making it accessible to a broad audience. Freud introduces concepts like 'switch words' and 'verbal bridges,' highlighting their significance in understanding human behavior. This work is pivotal not just for psychopathology, but also for its implications in linguistics, semantics, and philosophy.
