| | Enjoyed your review MM , very much so, still find him very difficult, requires so much of my attention.I read a couple of pages and I'm moving somewhere again trying to see if I could explain to someone else, and nothing. But it's worth keep trying. |

| | The Freudian concept that mistakes in spelling are of a sexual nature is a phallusy :happy: |

| | ReviewThis is one of only a couple of books I could claim to have changed my life.
(I never liked such claims, as I don't really like to think I'm so easily moved by anything I happen to read... not healthy to buy into any single piece of literature absolutely I think)
It's not a big book by any stretch of the imagination... more of a pamphlet, or brochure for Jung's theory, from which you can jump off into his other works, which go into much greater depth on each of the aspects of the theory.
Like many, I never liked the Idea of Freud's rather reductive view of human beings as little more than mechanical animals driven by primal clockwork impulses, and which seems to exclude any possibility of attaching any inherent value to a person by so reducing them.
Jung doesn't do that, but in fact digs a little deeper into that very clockwork to discover meaning... and value.
From here, the other small Routledge books on Modern Man In Search Of A Soul, The Nature Of the Psyche, are a good route to take, before getting into the nitty gritty of Dreams, and The Science Of Mythology, and then the bigger editions which are presented more as the original essays and lectures.
