‘Jung’s Philosophy’ explores some of the controversial
philosophical ideas that are both explicit and implicit within
Jung’s psychology, comparing the philosophical assumptions between
this and other psychotherapeutic traditions. Within this book, Corbett
provides a useful introduction to the philosophical issues relevant to
the practice of analytical psychology, and how these are viewed by
different psychotherapeutic traditions. Most of the disagreement
between schools of psychotherapy, and much of the comparative
literature, centres around differences in theory and technique. This
book takes a different, more fundamental approach by comparing schools
of thought based on their underlying philosophical commitments. The
author discusses the philosophical basis of various worldviews such as
idealism and realism, beliefs about the nature of the psyche and the
unconscious, and the mind-brain relationship, and focuses on the way
in which Jung’s psychology addresses these and related issues,
including the possible relevance of quantum mechanics to depth
psychology. This text will be of value to practising psychotherapists
and Jungian analysts, individuals undertaking the relevant training,
and students in depth psychology.
