The author takes up Freud's sexual theory and examines several key issues-narcissism, infantile sexuality, heterosexuality, and gender-in order to reassert the radical aspects of Freud's epistemology. These areas are explored in two broad and interrelated themes, which are characterized loosely as a genealogy of morals and a philosophy of the will to power. Although this moves substantially beyond the formulations used by Freud, the underlying issue in all this material is the problem of value, and the author demonstrates the truly radical arc of Freud's thinking in the way he addresses value in his sexual theory.
作者采用了弗洛伊德的性理论，并审视了几个关键问题——自恋、婴儿性欲、异性恋和性别——以重申弗洛伊德认识论的激进方面。这些领域在两个广泛而相互关联的主题中进行了探讨，可以松散地描述为道德谱系学和权力意志哲学。尽管这大大超出了弗洛伊德使用的表述，但所有这些材料的根本问题是价值问题，作者通过弗洛伊德在性理论中处理价值的方式，展示了他的思想真正激进的弧线。
