The Inside Out: Mining the Soul (Jung on the Hudson Book) by Robin Robertson Ph.D.
Do you think that life happens to you from the outside in? Think again! Robin Robertson says that we are born as complex repositories of memories and behaviors. Some things we learn by rote from our environment, but other parts of ourselves the important things we know in our inner soul before we "know" them in our conscious mind are awaiting for various "triggers" to release them from the silence. Introduction. Bibliography. Index.

About the author
Robin Robertson
19 books13 followersRobin Robertson has spent a life-time bridging the worlds of psychology, science, business and the arts. He's a clinical psychologist and writer who has published seventeen books and more than two hundred articles in either psychology or his hobby field of magic.
He's lectured widely and has taught graduate level courses on Jungian psychology for both the California Institute of Integral Studies, and for the Jungian Studies program at Saybrook University.
Before becoming a psychologist, he was a vice-president of software development for a large insurance company, and for nearly thirty years, he's been a consultant responsible for all computer decisions to a multi-employer pension plan.
Robin has separate undergraduate degrees in mathematics and English literature, as well as an M.A. in counseling psychology, and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology.
Robin's books, often on Jungian psychology or the relationship between psychology and science, have gone through multiple printings, new revised editions, and foreign translations. Since 1986, he's been a writer, editor, columnist and editorial board member of the Jungian journal "Psychological Perspectives" (a beautiful journal that speaks not merely to specialists, but to everyone who loves Jung.)
He has also been heavily involved with the applications of chaos and complexity theory, and, has been a contributing editor for "Cybernetics & Human Knowing" (a journal that looks at deep issues about the nature of reality).
He is a life-time amateur magician, and a member of the Order of Merlin of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, who has created or co-created original effects that have appeared in six books and many magic magazines.

Very shallow and very introductory of the concept he discussed
Nothing more deep
Author should have mined little more deeper by taking few of those topic
It look as if some compulsion to cover the topics to differentiate
Excellent writing skill but mining is not enough!

This book wasn't exactly what I expected it to be -- it was a lot about Eastern meditation, chakras, and so-forth in relation to Jungian psychology. However, all of those things interest me so I did enjoy this book and learned a bit.

Some real clarity here on some difficult to understand concepts. I appreciated the writing style of the author and it was a good read.
