About this Item

Jung Foundation for Analytical Psychology, New York, N.Y. 355pp. Clean & tight copy, unread, in Very Good condition, w/some slight surface wear on cover wraps o/w unmarked & w/a pristine interior. "This unique study of the life of C. G. Jung is more than a primer of Jungian thought; more than an academic biography of a prominent scientist whose life and work influenced such varied disciplines as anthropology, atomic physics, ethnology, theology and parapsychology, as well as his own fields of psychology and psychotherapy. Rather, it is a daring innovation in the literature of psychology, tracing the development of such basic Jungian concepts as the collective unconscious, archetypes, psychological types, active imagination, the creative instinct, and the process of individuation from their origins in specific dreams Jung had throughout his life to their eventual empirical documentation in the numerous books and papers he published. Dr. Von Franz, who worked closely with Jung for twenty-five years, has created a portrait that relates the history of the growth and development of one man's creative powers on a personal level to the more universal level of the current myth of C. G. Jung, the man who recognized the importance of the unconscious and who prophesied the psychic dangers inherent in our century." [publisher copy] VG paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable.
