Though he was a prolific writer and an original thinker of vast erudition, Jung lacked a gift for clear exposition and his ideas are less widely appreciated than they deserve. n n In this concise introduction, Anthony Stevens explains clearly the basic concepts of Jungian psychology: the collective unconscious, complex, archetype, shadow, persona, anima, animus, and the individuation of the Self. He examines Jungs views on such disparate subjects as myth, religion, alchemy, `sychronicity, and the psychology of gender differences, and he devotes separate chapters to the stages of life, Jungs theory of psychological types, the interpretation of dreams, the practice of n Jungian analysis, and to the unjust allegation that Jung was a Nazi sympathizer. Finally, he argues that Jungs visionary powers and profound spirituality have helped many to find an alternative set of values to the arid materialism prevailing in Western society. n n ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.
