Rainer Funk Author & Editor

Erich Fromm (1900-1980) was not only an outstanding social scientist and author of bestsellers (Escape from Freedom: The Art of Loving; To Have or to Be?) but also a first-rate practicing psychoanalyst who applied his experience to the interpretation of social phenomena and reformulated Freud's basic insights into the unconscious of the individual and of society. Rainer Funk was Erich Fromm's last assistant and is now literary executor and editor of Fromm's literary estate.
