5.0 out of 5 stars Jacobi on Jung, February 15, 2000
This review is from: The Psychology of C. G. Jung (Paperback)
I have used a number of introductions to the ideas of Carl Jung in my Literature and Psychology courses over the years, and Jacobi's book is the best. My students find its presentation of Jung's ideas clear and thorough.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for Jung, August 27, 2011

This review is from: The Psychology of C. G. Jung (Paperback)
Jacobi risked her life to study under Jung and is one of the two people mentioned in Gifts Differing: Understanding Personality Type considered as "getting" Jung. (The other is van der Hoop.) In this book, Jacobi explains the conscious, personal unconscious, collective unconscious, and the lifecycle, which is required reading for Jung.

Jung's own books expect you to already know the material. For example, Psychological Types (Collected Works of C.G. Jung Vol.6) doesn't really explain mentions the lifecycle. Anyone wanting to get "into" Jung needs to start here.

4.0 out of 5 stars A short but tough slog, April 6, 2006
By

This review is from: The Psychology of C. G. Jung (Paperback)
1) Good points - brief (150 pg), organized, concise, and comprehensive coverage of the topic for its length.
2) Bad point - like that of many of Jung's followers (and Jung himself) the prose is like viscous mud, and reading it is a needlessly tough slog.
