4.0 out of 5 stars A vintage Irving Stone, Mar 4 2002
By 
Rama K. Rao (Bridgewater, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Passions Of The Mind (Paperback)
To pen a picture of one of the most complex persons in history and yet not lose the reader's interest is an art that Irving Stone has demonstrated time and again. This book is not an exception. Ideally suited for those who do not want to get lost in psychological mumbo jumbo and yet want to see the fascinating mind that caused a convulsion in the world of psychology...that's passions of the mind. A must for any Irving Stone fan, and yet a lot more enjoyable than many other tomes on this subject.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hated for it to end., Jan 5 2003
By Maurice Thorne - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Passions of the Mind
I had cared little about Sigmund Freud, and even less about reading a thick book about him, but I was captivated by the title. Stone has great titles and I have read Lust of Life, and found it rather interesting. When I read Passions of the Mind, it took a while. This was years ago, but I have not forgotten how much I enjoyed it. When I finished it, it was with some sadness that I folded it pages together, and laid it down to rest. It was used when I got it. It is beat up and weary, but I loved it, and have a much different feeling, not only about Freud, but also about the students of medicine and the times about which it was written. These were real people, and I like real people. I would put this book much higher on an approval list than The Agony and the Ecstacy, which I never quite finished. Maurice Thorne
