The Psychology of C.G. Jung

Dr Jung never took time out from his pioneering work in psychology to make a concise presentation of the elements of his psychological theories. Dr Jacobi's synthesis, which Jung applauds in his Foreword, offers the reader a comprehensive review of the central content of his system by a student & colleague who worked closely with him for many years. For this definitive, new edition, Jolande Jacobi has written a new introduction & revised footnotes to refer to the complete works of C.G. Jung. The book also includes the complete bibliography of the many journal articles & books written by Jung during his long productive lifetime. There are eight color plates among the "pictures from the unconscious" & other illustrations which give a better idea of the intrapsychic process than can be conveyed in words.
