Jung's map of the soul, paperback/murray stein

Jungs ideas continue to be of interest to many readers.

Murray Stein, a longtime Jungian therapist and author, provides readers with an accessible introduction to the essential Jungian ideas.

A major challenge to anyone who is trying to understand Jungs thought is the piecemeal way in which Jung communicated his ideas over his 60-year career - the result was 18 volumes of dense, often repetitious, prose.

Stein provides a unified, comprehensive summary of Jungs vision of psychological and spiritual life.

Written in a user-friendly style with lively anecdotes and helpful examples that illustrate some of Jungs abstract ideas.

This text covers: the collective unconscious; human consciousness and the structure of the ego; synchronicity; the complexes; shadow; psychic energy; self; persona; individuation; and anima/animus.
