Reviews

'Jung was probably the most significant original thinker of the twentieth century.' - Kathleen Raine

'There is an abundance of interesting and occasionally suggestive detail ... and beyond all this there is the undeniable importance and fascination of the question of the archetypes which Jung puts before us.' - Sewanee Review

'It shows how two disciplines can be brought together to indicate further syntheses. The mythological material presented is excellent and the book will repay reading on this account alone.' - British Journal of medical Psychology

'He taught himself and men how to read the language of dreams as if they were the forgotten language of the gods themselves.' - Laurens van der Post

'It shows how two disciplines can be brought together to indicate further syntheses. The mythological material presented is excellent and the book will repay reading on this account alone.' - Michael Fordham, co-editor of The Collected Works of C.G. Jung
