Table of Contents Dream-Analysis in its Practical Application -- Problems of Modern Psychotherapy -- The Aims of Psychotherapy -- A Psychological Theory of Types -- The Stages of Life -- Freud and Jung - Contrasts -- Archaic Man -- Psychology and Literature -- The Basic Postulates of Analytical Psychology -- The Spiritual Problem of Modern Man -- Psychotherapists or the Clergy Review He was more than a psychological or scientific phenomenon; he was to my mind one of the greatest religious phenomena the world has ever experienced. - Laurens van der Post His psychological approach is deeply interesting and should stimulate many who are today more ready to trust a doctor than a clergyman, to help them to rediscover the meaning of life. - The Guardian Jung was the first to see that, of all the crises facing humanity, the lack of any sense of meaning in life is the crisis that guarantees all the rest. Whether the reader self-defines as modern, late modern of post-modern, the predicament that Jung lays out in bleak detail still strikes a chord. His suggestion that any possible solutions - political ecological, philosophical or religious - must include and respect elements of what lies deep within the psyche (the soul) continues to challenge and to inspire. - Andrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology, University of Essex This slim volume contains the quintessence of Jungs thinking. Originally published in 1933, it was the first readily accessible presentation in English of the great psychologists basic ideas about psychotherapy, dream interpretation, psychological types, the stages of life and his differences with Sigmund Freud. His observations on the relationship between the "archaic man" and "modern man" anticipate those of contemporary evolutionary psychiatry, while his diagnosis of what alls western culture has been endorsed by subsequent history. An invaluable book for those seeking an introduction to Jungian psychology, expressed - with unusual clarity - in the masters own words. - Anthony Stevens Review Quote He was more than a psychological or scientific phenomenon; he was to my mind one of the greatest religious phenomena the world has ever experienced. - Laurens van der Post His psychological approach is deeply interesting and should stimulate many who are today more ready to trust a doctor than a clergyman, to help them to rediscover the meaning of life. - The Guardian Jung was the first to see that, of all the crises facing humanity, the lack of any sense of meaning in life is the crisis that guarantees all the rest.
