Peter Joffre Swales (5 June 1948 in Haverfordwest, Wales – 15 April 2022 near İzmir, Turkey) was a Welsh "guerilla historian of psychoanalysis", and former assistant to The Rolling Stones, who wrote essays and letters about Sigmund Freud. A 1998 article in The New York Times Magazine noted his "remarkable detective work over the last 25 years, revealing the true identities of several early patients of Freud's who had been known only by their pseudonyms." He is one of three men (the others are Freud Archives director Kurt R. Eissler and psychoanalyst Jeffrey Masson) whose machinations are described in the 1984 book In the Freud Archives, which originated as two articles in The New Yorker magazine that provoked Masson to file an unsuccessful $10 million libel suit against the magazine and its writer Janet Malcolm.
