ABSTRACT
We now turn our attention to the clinical application of some of the ideas we have been discussing. In no other chapter of the book have I been as aware of possible disparities in my readers’ experience and knowledge. To save confusion, I want to state at the outset that I am assuming a general knowledge of what happens in psychotherapy and analysis and of the better known principles of Freudian analysis. When we examine psychoanalytic parallels we can do so in outline only; though, as throughout the book, detail will be introduced when Jung’s individual contribution is discussed. Post-Jungian debates can be seen as occurring within the overall psychotherapeutic milieu; very few Jungian analysts have been unaffected by developments in psychoanalysis.
