Taplinger Publishing Company, 1973 - 142 pagini
Breaking away from the influence of Freud, Jung developed into his most important rival in the development of psychiatry theory. His ideas about astrology, the importance of the occult, the ability of dreams to foretell important events, and extrasensory perception are the subject of growing interest at a time when traditional psychiatric methods are being radically questions. This introduction is a lucid guide to Jung's voluminous and diverse writings. The authors discuss the ramification of such basic Jungian concepts as the theory that a renaissance of symbolism was necessary to reduce random, personal aggression; the argument that the libido involved a generalized desiring, willing, and striving; and the universality of archetypes in different cultures. The feature of the book is a critique of psychoanalytic theory since Freud. Dr. Lomas examines Freud's psychoanalytic theory in detail and he questions Freud's detached, scientific methods. -- From publisher's description.
