Andrew Samuels's introduction gives an appreciation of Jung's work and discusses the three approaches to analytical psychology. The Companion includes a full chronology of his life and work, reading lists, a case study and a glossary.

Rezensionen
"The backgrounds of the essayists are diverse, as are their views regarding Carl Jung and his work...Young-Eisendrath's essay on Jung and Buddhism is invaluable, as is Dawson's on literary criticism. Summing up: Recommended."
