Carl Jung. In Search of Oneself

A psychiatrist fascinated by Eastern philosophy and occultism, a follower of Freud who broke away from his teacher, Carl Gustav Jung redefined psychiatry and chose to treat the person rather than the symptoms. Throughout his long, rich life, Carl Jung... developed a direction in analytical philosophy that is widely used by contemporary psychotherapists, formulating concepts of the collective unconscious, archetypes, and individuation. On the pages of this book, French philosopher and journalist Frédéric Lenoir creates a vivid, lively portrait of Jung with all his contradictions: compromises with the Nazis, anti-Semitic statements, marital infidelity. Jung was not perfect, but that is precisely why he was able to penetrate so deeply into the mysteries of the human psyche. 'As an enlightener and visionary, Jung continues to remind us that it is in the human psyche that both the path to a better future and the worst dangers for humanity and the planet lie.'
