Reviews and Endorsements
This is a wonderful “introduction” to Jung, for those who want to be introduced substantially, reminiscent of Richard Wollheim’s masterly “introduction” to Freud, better than anything else of its kind I have read.
Professor Mark Solms, Research Chair, International Psychoanalytical Association
Ann Casement reveals the links between the clinical and cultural aspects of Jungian psychology in this compelling, insightful, and persuasive study. Its many strengths include the way it speaks to analysts and non-analysts alike, how it brings out the range of applications of analytical psychology, and details the different approaches taken towards it. Essential – and enjoyable – reading for analysts and academics alike.
Paul Bishop, William Jacks Chair, University of Glasgow
‘strongly recommended for a well-struck balance between professional biography, technical exposé and critical contextualisation.’
Damien Spendel, Paradigm Explorer
‘Casement brings to this endeavour her significant international work as well as her impressive background of 55 years in our field. […] This book, I believe, would be well received in introductory courses to analytical psychology; it also serves as a complementary work when reading about Jung, his life, and possibly even ‘The Red Book’. […] many will find it an asset in their learning and understanding of analytical psychology. I could see it being useful as part of the reading in undergraduate courses that explore depth psychology, as well as in graduate‐level training in social work, counselling, clinical psychology, and psychiatry.’
Robert Tyminski, C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco, ‘Journal of Analytical Psychology’
