Difficult to find in the dust jacket and in collectible condition. Carl Jung, along with Sigmund Freud, is considered to be one of the founders of the science of psychology and psychoanalysis. Jung's contributions to the field include the concepts of introverts and extroverts, the idea of personality archetypes, and the "collective unconscious". Although today much of Jung's work is considered unscientific, he is a pioneer in the field and helped it to gain traction and popularity, to the point where it is now a mainstream scientific discipline. The first of these two essays contain Jung's ideas on the origins of psycholanalysis, sexual theory, human desire for power, and his ideas on individual unconscious and the collective unconscious. The second essay contains more ideas on the individual mind and how the unconscious mind influences real-world action and feeling. Very Good / Good+. Item #000012492
