Rezensionen

"At a time when the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse - War, Famine, Disease, Death - are rampaging around the world, the theme of this work is timely. The Introduction sets the tone as it features the un-concealing of the shadow of the two editors' Christopher Perry and Rupert Tower - grandson of Daphne du Maurier. Perry's own contribution is grounded in the solid work by Gabbard and Celenza on boundary violations that addresses those difficulties. There follow other practice-based clinical pieces and chapters on literature and esoterica. Interspersed with these are weighty entries on the hot topics of today, viz., climate change, gender dysphoria, the metaverse, and modern technology. Jung's Shadow Concept: the Hidden Light and Darkness Within Ourselves investigates the darkest recesses of human existence animating one of Jung's major contributions to psychology: the Shadow - light and dark."

Ann Casement, LP, Professor at the Oriental Academy of Analytical Psychology.

"A most timely reflection by a stellar group of Jungian authors and lay-people shedding light on numerous features of our shadow-rich psyches individual and collective."

Murray Stein editor of Jung on Evil.

"This is a wide ranging and immensely thoughtful work about that part of ourselves that we may not wish to see. Like Macbeth, we may all be 'afraid to think' about the Shadow, whether in ourselves or our communities. The contributors to this book have invited us, the reader, to take a compassionate yet resolute look at many different aspects of that complex concept. I believe it is a timely and important read."

Dr Gwen Adshead, 'The Devil You Know: Encounters in Forensic Psychiatry"
