BERKLEY The Undiscovered Self: The Dilemma of the Individual in Modern Society

C.G Jung explains very eloquently on this short but dense book much of the disarrangements we are going through right now in the West. Why the Left went bananas and the Right no longer conserves anything, or why and how the scientific materialism or religious fundamentalism are not answers to each other's shortcomings and blind spots. I think this is a masterpiece, something that should be more widely known, but if you read carefully you will soon realize why. Christianity, Communism, Marxism, Science..this book sheds light on the current result of the interaction of such forces like no other I've ever read, except for The Master and His Emissary. Is worth the investment, you'll come out thinking that at least there is something else you haven't been told.

A great book . A prime purchase for me

Not an easy read.

Para leerse lento y hacer apuntes, meditar su contenido, es corto pero muy concentrado, Jung es capaz de explicar varios fenomenos que se viven en la vida moderna, como el completo desinteres de la sociedad hacia el individuo y la priorizacion de la colectividad, todo esto con origen en puntos flacos de nuestra psique, a la que regimenes autoritarios sacan provecho. El fue capaz de verlos venir desde hace casi un siglo.

I’d very much like to read the book, but can’t in this condition unfortunately. Halv of the pages in the entire book looks like this.
