About Understandable Jung: The Personal Side Of Jungian
Harry Wilmer has a talent for taking the most complex and esoteric elements of Jungian theory and explaining them in a straightforward, amusing, and engaging manner. This sequel to Practical Jung offers humorous anecdotes and a wealth of useful information for teachers, therapists, social workers, pastoral counselors, and anyone who has ever wanted to know or understand more about Jungian ideas. Wilmer writes, in the Introduction to Understandable Jung: “Shall we begin with gods and goddesses, mandalas, minotaurs, and alchemy, with quaternities and conjunctionis, and that sort of thing? Not by a long shot! Understandable Jung is an attempt in present Jung’s ideas (both simple and deep) in clear language through sketches I have made, images, photographs, and cartoons of the humorous side of our deep psyches. This book addresses the personal side of Jungian Psychology based on my personal participation in the act of understanding.” You won't find anything better, not only for someone who is just beginning to take their dreams seriously, but also for those who find working with dreams a frustrating, baffling affair. -Round Table Review Once I picked up the book I couldn’t put it down…there are sections I know I will return to, to read again and still again. ...Some of the book had me laughing, some had me doubting, some had me wanting to debate, but in the end it is a volume of poetry that no mental health professional can read without becoming a better psychotherapist. -James M. A. Weiss, M.D., Journal of Integrative and Eclectic Psychology Consistently he is humorous, playful, serious, and even touching. The overall style of this text, with its quotations, diagrams, pictures, commentaries and cartoons, differs from other introductory books…. The diversity, scope, and at times, ambiguity of the material presented stimulates active interaction between the text and the reader. -Nancy Robinson, Psychological Perspectives This book would be a treat for someone really interested in Jungian psychotherapy or for someone with a room full of clients they would like to counsel more effectively. -Elisabeth Nachtwey, SSC Booknews Harry A. Wilmer, M.D., was president, director, and founder of the Institute for the Humanities at Salado, Texas. He was a senior analyst in the international society of Jungian Analysts and a member of the International Association for Analytical Psychology. He published thirteen books and 190 articles, held many important positions, and persued many interesting projects. He is the author of Practical Jung: The Nuts and Bolts of Jungian Psychology, to which the book forms a sequel.
