As Corhanem says a bit of both. Anyone who can be expelled by the Communist Party, was on a Nazi blacklist, got thrown out of the Psychoanalytic Association by Freud and be imprisoned and had his books destroyed by the US Federal government has to be interesting. His books, particularly some of his early works, are well worth a read.

Like the first one, I wiuld say, he was both. His psychology is one of the most interesting as far as I'm concerned. However when it comes to his orgone theory .... I would like not to enlarge on that.

He was as mad as a march hare. Can anyone believe his twaddle about a sexual energy pervaiding all things that is so obvious that no-one can see it, just him? Also, do you believe that some box can liberate that energy to give one sexual "liberation"? Absolute Dagenham piffle.
