Reviews:

Alison, 06/17/97, A stone not to be left unturned.
Read along exploring the mind and spirit of this century's (and possibly the next) deepest thinker as he takes you on a reflective journey through his inner and outer lives. A wonderful book to bring us back to our grounding in the spirit. Jung not only speaks of but lives out the archetypal truths of mankind. His description and recounting of his discovery of the Biblical "stone the builders left untaken" which he had his builders use as the cornerstone of his castle is an inspiring revelation of a turning point in his life and beliefs from this most eastern of western philosophers. One comes away from the book with a fulfilling sense of wholeness that remains a part of the heart. It is a book to buy, read, and reread at different times throughout life.

A Reader, 01/01/97, One of my all time favorites
This book is for anyone who is interested in Carl Jung, his life and teachings. One of the greatest thinkers of all times.

S., 09/10/96, A lovely, straightforward, eye- and mind-opening book.
To paraphrase Mark Twain, everyone talks about Jung (especially since the New Age laid claim to him) but no one ever reads him. If you want to know what the fuss is about without slogging through the 20-volume collected works, read this lovely, short, simple and important book. Jung talks about his astonishing life and experiences (including dreams, visions, hauntings and other aspects usually talked about obscurely and mystically if at all) as simply and honestly as if he were sitting in your living room smoking his pipe.
