[William Schram · Rating 5 out of 5]

Carl Gustav Jung was a Swiss Psychiatrist who once collaborated with Sigmund Freud. They had a difference in opinion and went their separate ways. Jung is most famous for his theories on the Collective Unconscious, the Persona, the Shadow, and the Anima/Animus.

If you play video games, you may have heard of the Shin Megami Tensei series and its offshoot, the Persona series. Persona 4 Golden, Persona 3 Reload, and Persona 5 Royal are rated highly in my listing of favorite games. So Jung's theories are in the popular sphere.

The book contains a selection of Jung's writings. The editors selected these works to highlight Jung's theories and their influence on the world. Now, the book I found doesn't have an ISBN, so I don't think it's for sale.

I enjoyed the book. Thanks for reading my review, and see you next time.
