Carl Gustav Jung

“An evenhanded chronicle that follows Jung from cradle to grave and attempts to explicate the theories he constantly spun out. —Walter Kendrick, The New York Times Book Review

In this, the first full-length biography of the great Swiss psychologist, Carl Gustav Jung is remembered not only for his valuable contribution to psychotherapy and to our understanding of the inner workings of the mind, but for the enduring controversies he sparked. In Frank McLynn's capable hands, readers will come to understand the man who originated what are widely held to be some of the greatest ideas of this century.

“An admirably honest book that is both lively and objective and deserves a wide readership.” —Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson, Los Angeles Times Sunday Book Review,

“[An] excellent biography. —Linda Gamlin, New Scientist
