A short but tough slog
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
1) Good points - brief (150 pg), organized, concise, and comprehensive coverage of the topic for its length. 2) Bad point - like that of many of Jung's followers (and Jung himself) the prose is like viscous mud, and reading it is a needlessly tough slog.
Jacobi on Jung
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I have used a number of introductions to the ideas of Carl Jung in my Literature and Psychology courses over the years, and Jacobi's book is the best. My students find its presentation of Jung's ideas clear and thorough.
