Abstract

Erich Fromm was a highly successful popular author and psychoanalyst who played an important role as a twentieth-century social activist and public intellectual. Friedman’s biography reveals Fromm’s fascinating “lives” as a psychoanalyst, social theorist, cosmopolitan activist, and “prophet” of love who significantly influenced American thought and politics.
