Anthony Stevens
Anthony Stevens argues that Jung's visionary powers and profound spirituality have helped many to find an alternative set of values to the arid materialism prevailing Western society.
This concise introduction explains clearly the basic concepts of Jungian psychology: The collective unconscious, complex, archetype, shadow, persona, anima, animus, and the individuation of the Self. Anthony Stevens examines Jung's views on such disparate subjects as myth, religion, alchemy, "synchronicity", and the psychology of gender differences. He devotes separate chapters to the stages of life, Jung's theory of psychological types, the interpretation of dreams, the practice of Jungian analysis, and to the unjust allegation that Jung was a Nazi sympathiser.

Critic reviews
"Tim Pigott-Smith's mellow voice achieves perfect pronunciation. By giving welcome expression to the dry definitions, his tempered enthusiasm and varying pace add color to a black-and-white text." (AudioFile)

The chapter that discusses the charges of racism, especially anti-semitism, against Jung wasn't sufficiently developed, in my opinion. It defends Jung against those charges, but it doesn't really go into the nature or basis of the charges themselves. I understood why the author thought Jung wasn't a racist, but I wasn't clear at all on why some of his detractors thought he was.
A good place to start in understanding Jung. Short and, with the exception noted above, very informative.
I love this series!

Personally, I’ve never found Jung all that difficult to understand, and rare gems such as this book in an enjoyable and simple manner, lay bare all the basics in an easy to understand manner, rather than purposefully clouding Jung’s knowledge. I enjoyed it very much.

First, Tim Piggot-Smith does a wonderful job reading: crisp, confident and with that English air of authority we Americans find reassuring. Despite leaving some stuff out, the author did a great job acquainting the reader with the highlights of Jung’s thought and life. I’ve read a decent amount of Jung and Marie-Louise von Franz, but it is nice to be able to zoom out to see much of it in a single glance. Many times I’d say to myself, “Oh, yeah, I remember this one.” I think this would be a good introduction for someone who wanted to dip a toe into the turbulent waters of the Jungian unconscious, too.
Good, but Left Out Some Stuff
