Quite an accomplishment since Jung’s approach to the psyche and therapy is revolutionary and multifaceted.
You will not find a clearer presentation of the life and psychology of Carl Jung.
I have enjoyed a dozen books in the ‘Very Short Introduction’ series but I must say this one on Jung is the best I’ve come across. The Oxford Very Short Introductions Series Less Detail edit detailsĪsk the Goodreads community a question about Jungīe the first to ask a question about Jung Published June 7th 2001 by Oxford University Press, USA (first published March 1994)Īll Editions | Add a New Edition | Combine. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam. A small masterpiece of insight and concision, this volume offers a clear portrait of one of the twentieth century's most important and controversial thinkers.Ībout the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Now, in this extremely accessible introduction, Anthony Stevens-one of Britain's foremost Jungian analysts-clearly explains the basic concepts of Jungian psychology: the collective unconscious, complex, archetype, shadow, persona, anima, animus, and the individualization of the Self. Though he was a prolific writer and an original thinker of vast erudition, Jung lacked a gift for clear exposition, and his ideas are less widely appreciated than they deserve to be. This is the most lucid and timely introduction to the thought of Carl Gustav Jung available to date.
