Reconstructing the theories of Freud and Klein, Sebastian Gardner argues that psychoanalytic theory explains the nature of irrationality, and is an extension of everyday psychological explanation. He advances a view of the unconscious as a source of inherently irrational desires seeking expression through wish-fulfilment and phantasy.
