Aristotle said the definition of man is the definition of his soul.So everybody who wants to know psychology is necessary to read this book !

In a genre of psychobabble, this books stands out as sharp and clear. Great intro or study of Jung. Not shy about spirituality. Grab a copy.

Intelligent ideas through the imagination of a western man

Mr. Hillman's early works are exciting reading, even today, some 25-30 years after their original publication. Here is a true scholar, in the old ways or classical sense. Mind you, I am not one. A visionary, a brave soul, a seeker, and never removed from life; Mr. Hillman remains fully immersed within it. I love this man for his courage, and his inspiring, challenging, and wholly imaginative ideas. If the word 'imagination' stirs something wonderful deep within you, read this man's work, please. For me, it seems this piece, together with 'Re-Visioning Psychology' and 'The Dream and the Underworld' bring together the author's core vision. Mr. Hillman of course, may disagree! A great man; an even greater contribution.
