About this listen

James Hillman was a past master of alchemical psychology. This field uses metaphors derived from ancient alchemy to elucidate deep structures in the creative imagination. Creative processes are not random. By studying alchemical psychology we come to understand ourselves and other humans in surprising ways that frequently diverge sharply from the habitual understandings we have unconsciously absorbed from the cultures in which we were raised. These new awarenesses can engender unexpected new vitality and wonder.

Hillman was a jungian psychologist, however he was not a match for Jung when it comes to knowledge of alchemy. His style is that of a cocky psychiatrist with an air of superiority as if he holds some keys to secrets of alchemy and psychology. His delivery is superb, he has a way with the words, and occasionally you will find a few nuggets of wisdom when he quotes Jung on some topics. But it is impossible to overlook the smug arrogance of Hillman throughout the audiobook. I say, I still benefited listening to it, but it was more like separating a small amount of wheat from a lot of chaff.
