When Carl Jung embarked on the extended self-exploration he called his confrontation with the unconscious the heart of it was The Red Book" a large illuminated volume he created between 1914 & 1930. Here he developed his principal theories
- of the archetypes the collective unconscious & the process of individuation
- that transformed psychotherapy from a practice concerned with treatment of the sick into a means for higher development of the personality. While Jung considered " The Red Book" to be his most important work only a handful of people have ever seen it. Now in a complete facsimile & translation it is available to scholars & the general public. It is an astonishing example of calligraphy & art on a par with " The Book of Kells" & the illuminated manuscripts of William Blake. The publication of " The Red Book" is a watershed that will cast new light on the making of modern psychology."
