An introduction to Jung’s psychological ideas

Calvin S. Hall’s primer surveys Carl Jung’s life and work, tracing his departure from Freud’s influence and the development of his own investigations into the psyche. It brings together ideas associated with Jungian psychology alongside theories the description identifies as controversial, including his connections between psychology and alchemy, ESP, astrology, and occultism. The book is presented as a condensed account, offering an overview rather than an exhaustive treatment of Jung’s thought.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers seeking an introductory overview of Jung’s life and psychological ideas
  • Those interested in the history and development of psychoanalytic thought
  • Readers curious about Jung’s more controversial interests, including alchemy and occultism

Book overview

The contributions of Carl Jung to understanding of the human psyche are immense. Starting as Freud's most famous disciple, Jung soon broke away from his mentor to follow his own lines of investigation and discovery. Many of Jung's ideas are now considered fundamentals in the study of the mind, but other, more controversial theories dealing with the psychological relevance of alchemy, ESP, astrology, and occultism are only now being seriously examined. This condensation and summary of Jung's life and work by two eminent psychology professors is written with deep understanding and extraordinary clarity and, along with its companion volume, A Primer Of Jungian Psychology is essential reading for anyone interested in the hidden depths of the mind.
