Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) Founded the analytical school of psychology and is responsible for bringing psychology into the twentieth century by developing a new theory of the unconscious.
'Indispensable for anyone who wants to understand something of
Jung's psychology and metapsychology.' - Rosemary Gordon, Journal
of Analytical Psychology
'In this essay Jung reveals himself as the most original and widely
informed psychologist of the twentieth century. With a dazzling
combination of scholarship and clinical acumen, he addresses the
problem of how we can know that the unconscious exists and how we
can bring its contents to consciousness. With his characteristic
emphasis on the primacy of psychic experience - 'the only reality
which is given to us without a medium' - he carries his thinking
beyond the psychodynamics of patients in analysis to examine the
social and political catastrophes which follow when collective
consciousness becomes dissociated from the collective unconscious.
A basic text for anyone concerned with the spiritual life and
psychic destiny of our species.' - Anthony Stevens
'Next to Freud, no psychiatrist of today has advanced our insight
into the nature of the psyche more than Jung has.' - Hermann Hesse
