Synopsis

Studies in Jungian Psychology by Jungian Analysts

"James Hollis's challenge is compassionate and inspired. He wants us to succeed." -Psychological Perspectives.

"His work makes us circle back on ourselves with new curiosity about our personal myths." -Round Table Review.

The Eden Project is a timely and thought-provoking corrective to the generalized fantasies about relationships that permeate our culture. This is not a practical guide on how to fix a relationship, but rather a challenge to greater personal responsibility in relationships, a call for individual growth as opposed to seeking rescue through others.
