There were times when I found myself wondering, "Why did this guy write a book about a person for whom he seems to have so little respect?" (Being, apparently, rather skeptical of the occult side of Jung.) But in other scenes, Jung comes across as sane and sensible, and his insights perhaps of value. The author doesn't explain those insights in way that makes it very clear to me, but of course Jung can speak for himself on that. At one point, what appeared psychobabble -- or at least esoteria -- to an outsider like myself, flew thick and fast between Jung, Freud, wives, and girlfriends. The author tells us what the persons involved "really" had in mind. "What happened was they had unconsciously 'swallowed' part of one another's soul." Hmmmn. At times like that, the author comes across like the friend who was supposed to stay sober at the party, but took a few sips anyway.
Overall, I found much fault with this book, but interesting tidbits, and kept picking it up, till I read it through. There's some interesting stuff on Freud and other early psychological persons, as well. I am still not quite sure what to make of Jung's theories -- and have some theories of my own by which to consider them -- but Hayman has, at least, helped me to put those ideas in rough, if not entirely coherent, context. And I enjoyed the book. ...
