On the Nature of the Psyche

By: C. G. Jung

Narrated by: John Telfer

Jung's discovery of the 'collective unconscious', a psychic inheritance common to all humankind, transformed the understanding of the self and the way we interpret the world. In On the Nature of the Psyche, Jung describes this remarkable theory in his own words, and presents a masterly overview of his theories of the unconscious, and its relation to the conscious mind. Also contained in this collection is On Psychic Energy, where Jung defends his interpretation of the libido, a key factor in the breakdown of his relations with Freud. For anyone seeking to understand Jung's insights into the human mind, this volume is essential listening. Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961). Founded the analytical school of psychology and developed a radical new theory of the unconscious.

Very deep

Carl Jung was quite ahead of his time, yet the field of psychology is still hopelessly behind in understanding the hidden parts of the psyche. Jung at least cracks the egg and starts to describe the hidden realms. Though he is hard to grasp at times, it would do any person interested in the mind, psyche, and consciousness of humans (and animals) to read this book.

Very poor narration.

The material of this book is priceless, Unfortunately, the narration is too theatrical and distracting.
