Engels | Paperback | 9780615600956 | 08 februari 2012 | 242 pagina's

The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung is well known as the father of analytical psychology, the developer of the concept of the archetype, and the genius who understood the relevance of alchemy to psychology. Less well known is that Jung was also the coiner of the phrase "New Age," and a pioneer in preparing for what he called the "Age of Aquarius." As a visionary student of ancient wisdom, Carl Jung understood the true nature of the challenges facing our transitional time-challenges that include: recognizing America's shadow reconsidering the claims of America's "exceptionalism" assessing the prospects of the future, as we face and move through the archetype of the apocalypse In handling all these and other challenges, Jung provides us with an array of resources-concepts, techniques, new perspectives-we can use to seize the opportunities of this unique period in human history and create a positive future.
