‘Jung’s Philosophy’ explores some of the controversial
philosophical ideas that are both explicit and implicit within
Jung’s psychology, comparing the philosophical assumptions
between this and other psychotherapeutic traditions. Within this
book, Corbett provides a useful introduction to the philosophical
issues relevant to the practice of analytical psychology, and how
these are viewed by different psychotherapeutic traditions. Most of
the disagreement between schools of psychotherapy, and much of the
comparative literature, centres around differences in theory and
technique. This book takes a different, more fundamental approach
by comparing schools of thought based on their underlying
philosophical commitments. The author discusses the philosophical
basis of various worldviews such as idealism and realism, beliefs
about the nature of the psyche and the unconscious, and the
mind-brain relationship, and focuses on the way in which Jung’s
psychology addresses these and related issues, including the
possible relevance of quantum mechanics to depth psychology. This
text will be of value to practising psychotherapists and Jungian
analysts, individuals undertaking the relevant training, and
students in depth psychology.
