Summary: I found this book frustrating to read...a big disappointment
Comment: I found this book frustrating to read. First, the writing is disjointed. The author jumps to new topics without transitions or comments on the many quotes. Second, and related to the first point, this is more of an edited volume of quotes, not an authored book with original ideas. Third, it is noteworthy to this reader that the author interprets his own failed marriage and Jung's affairs with patients as psychological growth, whereas Freud's affair with his sister-in-law was an opportunity to criticize Freud's emphasis on sex in his psychoanalysis. For readers interested in the topics of Tao and Jung, this book is likely to be a huge disappointment.

Summary: TERRIFIC, PERSONAL, HONEST & REAL
Comment: Imagine a shrink who can see and hear without claptrap and jargon. Imagine a sweet recollection of how Jung affected a life (the writers).

The book is real and terrific and a clear way of seeing the soul of Jung and the soul of a Jungian who doesn't talk in jargon.

It is almost like finding a lawyer who doesn't think he is a genius because he graduated law school and sees the world as case law; a lawyer who also speaks to be heard and understood as opposed to separate himself in some vaguely superior way in order to establish a basis for time billing from jargon alone.

The book is really a wonder of subtle sensibility and integration at a highly personal level.
