THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO JUNG
This new edition represents a wide-ranging and up-to-date critical introduction to the psychology of Carl Jung, one of the founders of psychoanalysis. Including two new essays and thorough revisions of most of the original chapters, it constitutes a radical new assessment of his legacy. Andrew Samuels’s introduction succinctly articulates the challenges facing the Jungian community. The fifteen essays set Jung in the context of his own time, outline the current practice and theory of Jungian psychology, and show how Jungians continue to question and evolve his thinking and to contribute to current debate about modern culture and psychoanalysis. The volume includes a full chronology of Jung’s life and work, extensively revised and up-to-date bibliographies, a case study, and a glossary. It is an indispensable reference tool for both students and specialists, written by an international team of Jungian analysts and scholars from various disciplines.
