What Jung Really Said                  by E. A. Bennet, Anthony Storr

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
With an Introduction by Anthony Storr. E.A. Bennet introduces us to the thought of Jung in the context of his life and his life's work. In this classic overview of Jung's sixty-year career, Bennet covers the "background and development of Jung's thinking, personality classifications, analysis of the components of personality, the unconscious, dreams, the active imagination, alchemical symbolism and philosophy, psychotherapy, and Jung's relationship to Freud... The author's choice of material is judicious and the exposition of it shows deft craftsmanship." (Choice).
 

Ingram
Carl Gustav Jung's emphasis on the spiritual aspects of human nature, his view of the meaning of dreams and the importance of subjective experience, brought him into conflict with his mentor Sigmund Freud. However his contributions to psychology and psychiatry are recognized today. Here friend and colleague E.A. Bennet introduces us to Jungian thought in the context of Jung's life and work.
