![]() * ME AND THE ORGONE: One Guy's Search for the Meaning Of It All, by Orson Bean. After spending ten years and thousands of dollars for psychoanalysis, actor Orson Bean was divorced, depressed and dissatisfied with life. Then he discovered the orgone therapy methods of Wilhelm Reich, which centers on the concept that sensual sexual feelings must be integrated with tender feelings of love for an individual to achieve complete sexual satisfaction. One must be free of emotional and physical blocks to experience such feelings. Here, Bean gives a candid and personal account of his experiences, his personal sexual revolution, and how this led him to feeling freer and more alive. A moving account for those interested in the personal side of Reich's transformative therapy method. 123 pp. ![]() * MAN IN THE TRAP: The Causes of Blocked Sexual Energy, by Elsworth F. Baker. This classic book offers a deep understanding of the core concepts of Wilhelm Reich's university life energy and its importance to health. Dr. Baker illustrates techniques for dissolution of chronic body armor, which resulted in dramatic transformations for many of his patients. For mankind, caged in his own armor and prevented from feeling truly alive, Baker helps to plot a course out of the trap. A more clinical discussion than the above work by Herskowitz, Baker also fleshes out his theories on the political character. 354 pp. ![]() * EVA REICH'S BUTTERFLY TOUCH MASSAGE (BOOK): A Gentle Technique for Babies, Children and Adults, by Richard Overly.

A very compelling monologue chronicling the abuse of "normal" parenting methods every one endures in infancy, childhood and adolescence. Presented in a dramatic prose form, it evokes memories of forgotten feelings and brings us quickly back to understanding the confusion and pain of children and what must be allowed in order to alleviate it. 50 pp. ![]() * FREUD'S FREE CLINICS: Psychoanalysis and Social Justice, 1918-1938, by Elizabeth Ann Danto. While this book was originally characerized here as "a carefully researched and highly readable book on the free psychoanalytic clinics in Vienna, Berlin and elsewhere in which Wilhelm Reich played a central role," upon second examination we have decided to drop the title from our listing, given some blatently false and misleading statements regarding Reich which we missed on the first review. On page 223-224, for example, after mentioning without clarification how Reich made (unidentified) "people feel somewhat uncomfortable, for his orgone accumulators and rain-making machines..." it states Reich "lost his mind to politics and incipient schizophrenia sometime around 1930." While author Danto inserts a moderating statement on that same page, that Reich "did not lose his mind" when speaking of his marriage with Annie Pink, who remained a leading figure in mainstream psychoanalysis, this correction is too ambiguous to constitute a retraction of the author's smear against Reich's name and reputation from the incautiously repeated malicious rumor. By comparison, discussions in the book about Carl Jung, who factually was a Jew-hater and became a Nazi sympathizer, never say Jung "went crazy", even though Jung's open and voluntary associations with Nazism so late into the Third Reich was surely a far more serious sign of mental imbalance than to investigate bio-energy or work with an orgone accumulator, as Reich did. Anyone who bothers to read the other books we offer for sale at this website will quickly learn, the discovery of the orgone energy is a scientific issue supported by a lot of confirming experimental work, and cannot be brushed aside as "evidence of madness" anymore than modern astronomy's discussions on the no-less mysterious "dark matter" are "madness" on the part of astronomers. But Reich, whom everyone in mainstream psychoanalysis loves to hate, and against whom generations of professional "skeptics" have hurled every kind of bad opinion without even a shred of evidence, is openly tarred as having "lost his mind", a "schizophrenic". Later on page 270, author Danto quotes another malicious rumor about Reich from Anna Freud, reinforcing all the above, where she basically calls Reich dishonest and insane. No evidence has ever been offered by Anna Freud or any of the psychoanalysts, nor by author Danto, to support these slanders. And Danto does not point out that no evidence exists to support such rumors. The statements by Anna Freud -- a woman whose biography suggests was a lesbian who never had a decent sexual relationship with a man -- are simply quoted, and left standing as if they were "truth". In the end, Reich proved correct about psychoanalysis, about the Nazis and communists (as equally pathological), about how psychoanalysis succumbed to appeasement ideology, and also about the orgone energy and even the "rain-making machines". In our initial review of this book, we relied upon a recommendation, and personally reviewed only the first parts of the book. It does contain a lot of material about the early period of the Sex-Pol movement in pre-Hitler Germany and Vienna. But given these terrible distortions about Reich, we no longer recommend it, nor sell it, as such outright distortions on such a leading figure in the German Sex-Pol (Wilhelm Reich) cast doubt upon the validity of her other historical discussions. For a counter, the reader is referenced to Reich's own books, particularly People in Trouble, The Sexual Revolution, Reich Speaks of Freud, and Mass Psychology of Fascism. Those titles, along with Reich's personal diaries which are now published, give a very good historical discussion of the times and events. ![]() |
