Synopsis

From the rear cover of this 216 page book: "This book is written in the conviction that modern depth psychology can illuminate and enrich those who are concerned to explore the spiritual and religious meaning of human experience. It compares and contrasts Jung's teaching with the faith and practice of Quakers. It will appeal to those who are not afraid to seek the meaning of life inwardly as well as externally. The emphasis is on natural growth and development and how the individual can achieve a greater measure of wholeness and unity through a sense of vocation. Often reassuring, sometimes deeply challenging, much of Jung's work concerns balance and harmony of opposites. At a time of religious uncertainty, sectarianism and aggressive mass movements, Jung's work brings a renewal of faith based not on dogma or ideology but on the inner experience of individuals. Originally a teacher, Jack Wallis has worked in the field of mental health, marital counseling and psychotherapy. He has lectured and written extensively."
