Summary: "Swiss-born Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) was one of the pioneers of psychology, largely responsible for the introduction of now-familiar psychological terms such as "introvert," "extrovert," and "collective unconscious." But in spite of this, Jung has often remained on the fringes of academic discourse. Seeking to understand Jung in view of not only his life, but also in light of his extensive reading and prolific writing, this new biography reclaims Jung as a major European thinker whose true significance has not been fully appreciated."--back cover.
