Written three years before his death, The Undiscovered Self
combines acuity with concision in masterly fashion and is Jung at
his very best. Offering clear and crisp insights into some of his
major theories, such as the duality of human nature, the
unconscious, human instinct and spirituality, Jung warns against
the threats of totalitarianism and political and social propaganda
to the free-thinking individual. As timely now as when it was first
written, Jung's vision is a salutary reminder of why we should not
become passive members of the herd. With a new foreword by Sonu
Shamdasani.

In 1935 Jung gave a now famous and controversial course of five
lectures at the Tavistock Clinic in London. In them he presents, in
lucid and compelling fashion, his theory of the mind and the
methods he had used to arrive at his conclusions: dream analysis,
word association and 'active imagination.' Immediately accessible
to the general reader, the Tavistock lectures are a superb
introduction to anyone coming to Jung's psychology for the first
time and crucial for understanding analytical psychology. A
fascinating feature of the book is the inclusion of some of the
questions posed to Jung at the end of each lecture. These
questions, including those from leading psychoanalysts such as
Wilfrid Bion, and the discussions that follow offer an outstanding
example of a great thinker at the peak of their powers. Also
amongst the audience was Samuel Beckett, who was deeply affected by
what Jung had to say. With a new foreword by Kevin Lu

"These compact vigorous essays constitute Dr. Jung's most sustained
interpretation of the religious function in individual
experience."-Journal of Social Philosophy "This psychological study
of religion is particularly interesting in the light of current
social and political movements throughout the world."-The
Personalist Dr. Carl Gustav Jung, author of some of the most
provocative hypotheses in modern psychology, describes what he
regards as an authentic religious function in the unconscious mind.
Using a wealth of material from ancient and medieval gnostic,
alchemistic, and occultistic literature, he discusses the religious
symbolism of unconscious processes and the possible continuity of
religious forms that have appeared and reappeared through the
centuries.
