The Red Book by Carl Jung is deemed as the most influential unpublished work in the history of psychology. Jung's extensive self-exploration, or "confrontation with the unconscious," relied heavily on The Red Book, a stunning volume he created spanning from 1914 to 1930. Within it, he developed theories that transformed psychotherapy from simply treating the sick, to fostering higher development of one's personality through concepts like archetypes, collective unconsciousness, and individuation.
Jung himself considered The Red Book to be his most significant work, yet it remains unseen by nearly everyone. However, a complete facsimile and translation of the book is now available to both scholars and the general public. With its exquisite calligraphy and artistry, The Red Book is a comparable example of masterpiece illuminated manuscripts like The Book of Kells and William Blake's works. The publication of The Red Book is significant and will shed new light on the making of modern psychology. The book is comprised of 212 color illustrations.
