About the author
(1875–1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology. He introduced key concepts such as the collective unconscious, archetypes, and individuation, which have had a lasting impact on psychology and philosophy. Jung’s work explored the deeper layers of the human psyche, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness and integration of the conscious and unconscious mind. His ideas extended beyond psychology into art, religion, and culture. Although initially associated with Sigmund Freud, Jung developed his own distinct approach. His theories continue to influence modern psychology, personal development, and the understanding of human behavior.
