Abstract "A big problem of psychology in the tradition of C.G. Jung is that many concepts and orientations are being used by its adherents that are not really compatible with a true psychology because they have their home ground in other orientations. A fundamental principle in psychology is that its views and concepts must ultimately be derived from a rigorous notion of psychology and from the concept of its key metaphor, soul. This book diligently examines a host of diverse psychological stances and concepts in search for this consistent belief, and begins with a thorough elucidation of the unique foundational orientation of Jung's psychology as one crucial and general guidepost. It then goes on to explore topics such as what gives Jungian psychology its uniqueness, synchronicity and the generation of meaning, the lasting significance of James Hillman's achievement in the field of psychology, as well as engaging with works from psychologists such as Robert Romanshyn, Mark Saban and Stanton Marlan. This book will be of great interest to the Jungian community, psychotherapists and psychoanalysts training in Jungian theory and practice, as well as those interested in psychological, theological and philosophical issues"-- Provided by publisher.
