    Dr Jacobi's synthesis, which Jung applauds in his Foreword, offers the reader a comprehensive review of the central content of his system by a student & colleague who worked closely with him for many years. For this definitive, new edition, Jolande Jacobi has written a new introduction & revised footnotes to refer to the complete works of C.G. Jung. The book also includes the complete bibliography of the many journal articles & books written by Jung during his long productive lifetime. There are eight color plates among the "pictures from the unconscious" & other illustrations which give a better idea of the intrapsychic process than can be conveyed in words.

    This book describes Reich's medical and scientific work on the living organism from his first efforts at the Medical School of the University of Vienna in 1919 to the laboratory experiments in Oslo in 1939 which revealed the existence of a radiating biological energy, orgone energy.The subject of "sexuality" is basic to this work, and Reich shows clearly its importance for human life and its relevance in understanding the social problems of our time.

    Together with Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, he was cofounder of the successful and influential review Les Temps Modernes. However, after Merleau-Ponty's two studies of Marxist theory and practice (Humanisme et Terreur and Les Aventures de la Dialectique), he alienated both orthodox Marxists and "mandarins of the left" such as Sartre and de Beauvoir. Perhaps his most lasting contribution to the interpretation of human existence was his formulation of a positive philosophical approach to psychology the foundations of which were clearly outlined in The Structure of Behavior and later more fully developed in Phenomenology of Perception.

    In fact it's the beginning of the gestalt therapy by one of the founding fathers of this therapy.-- Ehrenwald Frederick Perls received his M.D. in Berlin in 1921. Like Wilhelm Reich he started out as a Freudian analyst, but under the influence of Kohler, Wertheimer & Kurt Goldstein developed his own school of analysis: Gestalt Therapy. His principles of gestalt therapy have been adopted by countless encounter & sensitivity groups. He aims in this book to examine some psychological & psychopathological reactions of the human organism within its environment. The author is criticsl of orthodox psychoanalysis, & claims that the use of the new intellectual tools holism (field conception) & semantics (the meaning of meaning) can greatly improve our theoretical outlook.
