In this accessible format, the lives and works of Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung can be approached easily and confidently. Anthony Starr's Freud is an elegant study that guides the reader through exciting but entangling terrain. The core of our understanding of the significance of sexuality, dreams, repression, and taboo in the formation of personality are in large part the result of Freud's pioneering work. Storr's explorations of the development and change in Freud's theories are devoid of textbook rigidities and academic cliches, His perception, wit, and mastery of his material illuminate his subject, bringing to the surface those aspects of Freud's development and work which have often been glossed over if not virtually ignored. Anthony Stevens's Jung introduces the reader to the work of this second great innovator in the field of psychology. The author's deft handling of even the most subtle refinements of Jung's oeuvre make it comprehensible to the reader. Unlike his science~minded mentor Freud,Jung was, to a significant degree, a visionary and a mystic whose bold incursions into the arcane have sometimes served to frighten away potential readers. Often considered too murky, convoluted, and erudite for a general audience, Jung's mammoth output becomes, in this introduction, more readily apprehended.
