If you are interested in Jung's metaphysics I strongly recommend ordering a copy of The Red Book (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0393065677 https://www.amazon.com/dp/0393065677) even though it costs 200$, it is worth every penny. It is amazing to read Jung's unfiltered mind.
- richardjdare 5y agoThere is a cheaper "Readers Edition" of the Red Book available. Also, Jung's student Marie-Louise Von Franz wrote a bit about Jung's later ideas in her books, "Number and Time", and "Psyche and Matter".
- catskul2 5y agoCan you say more why you recommend it so strongly?
- throwaway47292 5y agoHmm, this is hard to answer. I have read Jung's CW 9, 11, 12 and 16 and bits and pieces from the rest, but I think when I read The Red Book things really changed for how I see his work. It is extremely raw material, of an alienist on the verge of madness, and yet he managed to extract the deepest reason out of the experience. I think it is really worth reading, but in compliment with the images he drew. Maybe you can still buy the reader's edition and look at the images online, as 200$ is a lot, but if you can afford it i would recommend to get the big book.
