In 1957, four years before his death, Carl Gustav Jung, psychiatrist and psychologist, began writing his life story. But what started as an exercise in autobiography soon morphed into an altogether more profound undertaking. The result is an absorbing piece of self-analysis: a frank statement of faith, philosophy, and principles from one of the great explorers of the human mind.

The Red Book, published to wide acclaim in 2009, contains the nucleus of C. G. Jung's later works. It was here that he developed his principal theories of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation that would transform psychotherapy from treatment of the sick into a means for the higher development of the personality.

In 1957, at the age of eighty-one, C. G. Jung began a collaboration with his student and secretary Aniela Jaffé and the legendary publisher Kurt Wolff on a book about his life. Memories, Dreams, Reflections would become a bestseller, yet it draws from less than half of Jaffé's original interviews with Jung. Much of the material from these candid, wide-ranging conversations was left on the cutting-room floor. Jung's Life and Work presents these interviews in their entirety for the first time.

Jung's discovery of the 'collective unconscious', a psychic inheritance common to all humankind, transformed the understanding of the self and the way we interpret the world. In On the Nature of the Psyche Jung describes this remarkable theory in his own words, and presents a masterly overview of his theories of the unconscious, and its relation to the conscious mind. Also contained in this collection is On Psychic Energy, where Jung defends his interpretation of the libido, a key factor in the breakdown of his relations with Freud.

In the 21st century, Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) remains one of the key figures in the field of analytical psychology - and Psychological Types, or The Psychology of Individuation, published in 1921, is one of his most influential works. It was written during the decade after the publication of Psychology of the Unconscious (1912), which effectively ended his friendship and collaboration with Sigmund Freud.

In diesem Buch wird die Wirkung des Begründers der Tiefenpsychologie auf die Kultur unseres Zeitalters zum ersten Mal umfassend sichtbar gemacht. Während die meisten bedeutenden Persönlichkeiten zuerst in ihrem Fachgebiet Anerkennung und Einfluss gewinnen, haben Jungs schöpferische Konzeptionen, da sie den Menschen als Ganzes angehen, auf den verschiedensten Wissensgebieten befruchtend gewirkt, so in der Theologie, in der Anthropologie und Ethnologie, in der Parapsychologie und sogar in der Atomphysik.

Jung Institute of Los Angeles.Jung said: “In the same way that the body needs food and not just any kind of food but only that which suits it, the psyche needs to know the meaning of its existence, not just any meaning ...

Anthony Stevens argues that Jung's visionary powers and profound spirituality have helped many to find an alternative set of values to the arid materialism prevailing Western society.
