gamer reviewed Modern Man in Search of a Soul by Carl Jung
Review of 'Modern Man in Search of a Soul' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
My longer review was lost, so I'm summarizing it up for my future self:
- disjointed between "chapters"
- tips about how to be a good psychoanalyst/therapist are interesting, but its hard to derive real value out of it
- spirituality and lack of it in the "modern" man (a rare occurrence in Jungs time, extremely common today) is probably a reason for many psychological issues
- many examples, making some parts easily accessible
- Freud bad
- spiritual innovations float from the lower classes up
- lots of discussion about what psychology is, which makes sense if you're in his class, but not really that relevant, since definitions have changed since his times
