...like Anheuser-Busch's year-old LA. Wine growth, which experienced significant leaps in the 1970s, has slowed. One reason: the industry was late in developing softer lines. The Seagram Co. Ltd., the Montreal-based distillery giant, has become the second- largest American wine producer; it owns both Paul Masson and Taylor wines, along with some 100 other spirits. To woo the yuppie sweet tooth, many distillers are marketing unusual-flavor drinks much lower than liquor in alcohol content.

His additional concern was not for Emma, but for Fliess, who Freud believed he had wronged by asking him to operate in a foreign city. Masson cannot seriously tarnish Freud's reputation as one of the great minds of recent times. His theories--including those on seduction--still have much to offer. But the author does cast a harsh light on Freud's sensitivity and humanity. The Assault on Truth occasions, new skepticism of Freud...
