Mahony (Canadian Society of Psychoanalysts; English, U. of Montreal) claims that the case of the patient Freud immortalized as Dora is not a model of treatment but an exhibition of the rejection of a patient by a clinician, a demonstration of Freud's misapprehensions about female sexuality and adolescence.
