4.0 out of 5 stars Changed my perception of reality, 28 Sep 2001
By johncmdr3@hotmail.com (London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
To be honest when i first picked up the book i was sure that it would be an eye opener but i got more than i expected . It was almost as if i had opened another set of eyes that were able to see though humanity. The reason being that this book allows you to see the world for what it trully is rather than what it appears to be. Man and his Symbols dives into the human psyche to expose the misconceptions we have about ourselves and others as well as exposing some of the similarities we have with other people. Carl Gustav and other writers in the book are very talented in relating the 20 years of research which it took to uncover the mystery about our conscious world and the unconscious world that we tend to ignore.This made the book more pleasant to read.The book also doesn't assume that you are familiar with his other work and gives a full overview of other related topics to do with the psyche. I also loved reading the sections of the book devoted to our dreams and their relevance. By doing this you are taken on a wonderfull journey through your mind and the minds of others. I also loved the book because it was written by a multitude of people each with their own opinion on the same topic area. And i can say that this made the book more interesting to read. I spent many late nights with this book in my hands. After i read this book i have so far read more of Jungs other books as they cover many different topics that all offer the same if not more

5.0 out of 5 stars A very very wise man, 5 Dec 2001
This is an indispensible book full of natural wisdom that opens up a whole world of thought. You will go back to read some passages again and again. The first 150 hundred pages are pretty hard work, but the pay off comes big time so stick with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Carl Jungs final message to England., 23 Dec 2000
This book has inspired me to think more carefully about life. It sums up his life of trying to create sanity in this world. Jung was very interested in the dreamworld of his patience, and as a follower of Freud he opposed many of his teachings. His life inspired a lot of popular culture in his day and is still very influential today. His teachings are universal and timeless.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great summary for those interested in Jung
Jung's style of writing is annoying, as he seems to go from one tangent to the next, without much indication of the point he seems to be trying to make. Read more
