About the author
Born in 1877 and active in the early 1900s, André Tridon is identified in Wikisource as a French-born playwright, psychoanalyst, and translator. Surviving library and archive records show that he published widely in English as well as in other forms, suggesting a career that crossed both literary and intellectual worlds.
His best-known books include Psychoanalysis; Its History, Theory, and Practice (1919/1920), Psychoanalysis and Behavior (1920), and Psychoanalysis and Love (1922). These titles place him among the early popularizers of psychoanalysis for general readers, explaining new psychological theories at a moment when Freud and related ideas were drawing broad public attention.
Tridon died in 1922. Although detailed biographical information is limited in the sources available here, the record of his publications shows a writer deeply interested in human behavior, sexuality, and modern thought, and his books remain of interest to readers curious about the first wave of psychoanalytic writing in English.
