Carl's Big Red Dream Book

Carl Jung's recently rediscovered Red Book records his visions of his own subconscious mind. The Swiss psychoanalyst never published it, perhaps out of a fear that he would be thought mad. A few years ago, a draft manuscript version of the book surfaced, and the work was eventually translated and is at last available to the public. (Read more about this story here and here.)

The BBC has posted more images from the book. You can see them here.

The Red Book has been a surprising hit--surprising not least because at $195.00 it's hardly an impulse purchase. The publisher is currently sold out and demand is strong. If you want a copy, call us and we'll order one for you when they become available again.--David E
