C.G. Jung

About this book

Carl Gustav Jung was one of the great thinkers of our time. In the course of his long medical practice he reflected deeply on human nature and human problems, and his prolific writings bear witness to his extraordinary wisdom and insight. When the first edition of this anthology of quotations from Jung's works appeared over twenty years ago, it attracted wide interest among general readers as well as students of analytical psychology. Now Jolande Jacobi, with the assistance of R.F.C. Hull, has revised it completely in order to include selections from 1945 to 1961, the fruitful last years of Jung's life. The anthology contains nearly thirteen hundred quotations from over one hundred works, arranged under four main headings: The Nature and Activity of the Psyche, Man in His Relation to Others, The World of Values, and On Ultimate Things.
