Dr. Carl Gustav Jung is a seminal figure in the history of depth psychology. An enormously influential & original thinker, he was for some time Freud's principal disciple, but he became more & more critical of the psychoanalytical emphasis on repressed sexual tendencies. After the 1912 publication of Symbols of Transformation, he broke away from Freud to develop his own technique of analytical psychology. Jung's clinical work & his own experience of occult phenomena led him to formulate & describe a number of key concepts which have now passed into general currency, including the theory of archetypes; the collective unconscious; synchronicity; & the idea of active imagination, a technique of conscious dreaming. With characteristic fluency, Colin Wilson weaves a fascinating biographical narrative with a penetrating analysis of Jung's ideas, providing a clear, readable introduction to his life & work.
