Editorial Reviews

"This volume is an eloquent witness to Jung’s greatness of mind and heart. . . . His idea of the archetype involves profound attitudes towards man’s existence and intimates values through which very many people have found a new significance in their lives."—-R. F. Hobson, Journal of Analytical Psychology
