Publication Success of Carl Jung's Red Book

News that the Red Book has become an Amazon best-seller is testimony to the enduring power of Carl Jung's thought and writing. Edited by Sonu Shamdasani, who is the Philemon Professor of Jung History at University College London, the Red Book is an account of Carl Jung's midlife crisis or soul journey which provided much of the material for both re-appraisal and future work. Incidentally, Philemon was, for much of the time, Jung's imaginary or spiritual companion (depending on one's interpretation) in this journey.
