Alone among modern psychologists, Carl Jung ranks as a visionary. His groundbreaking approach to personality theory and psychotherapy was matched by pioneering work in the fields of inner growth, wholeness, ageing, and mystical experiences, and his theories continue to influence every aspect of our lives, from education to theology to popular culture. This title distils his expansive works into an essential volume that allows readers to contemplate Jung's fascinating ideas as he would have liked them understood - in his own words. Here are Jung's most intriguing and important writings on spirituality, imagination, religion, mythology, personality types, the collective unconscious, and the shadowy side of the psyche - insights that remain vital in our continuing quest to understand the human mind.
