Study of Jung's typology has historically been separated from the analytic community. Here the widespread neglect and dismissal of Jung's typology is addressed, restoring it to the domain of analysis and psychology and also looking at its influence in broader culture and society. Karian begins by examining the historical basis for Jung's type theory in Psychological Types. He goes on to demonstrate that typology is the basis for cultural and political organisation and to examine its role in the creation of ethics. He concludes by re-establishing its relevance to the clinic. This ground-breaking look at a major aspect of Jung's work will reignite discussion, debate and research into typology.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'It could be one of the best books on Psychological Types ever written, and though a bit more cerebral than the usual reader of the typology literature might be used to, it would still be important to own, and thus likely to be purchased by that sort of reader (of whom there are many).' - John Beebe, C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco.
'I would say that this is a 'must publish' book. It is quite simple the best thing I've ever seen on Jung's theory of psychological types. I can see translation possibilities and a rather wider penetration of the clinical and scholarly market than with previous works on this theme.' - Andrew Samuels, University of Essex.
