This is the essential fully illustrated biography of Carl Jung - one of the world’s most influential thinkers and a founding father of psychology. It offers a unique insight into Jung’s life and work, featuring generous excerpts from his writings and letters, and reveals Jung as seen by those who knew him best, including his friend and mentor Freud, his patients, and the two women in his life, Emma Jung and Toni Wolff. The words of Jung himself and those who shared his work and private life are connected by Claire Dunne’s lively and accessible commentary. The evocative illustrations include colour reproductions of Jung’s paintings and photographs of Jung and his associates, as well as superb artwork by other artists both ancient and contemporary that reflects Jung’s teachings. Jung emerges as a healer whose skills arose from having first attended to the wounds in his own soul.
