Archetypes & Strange Attractors: The Chaotic World of Symbols (Studies in Jungian Psychology By Jungian Analysts)

Editorial Reviews
Midwest Book Review
Carl Jung believed that psychological development proceeds according to the influence of symbols in our lives. In stripping us of our old points of view so that growth can occur, symbols invariably feel chaotic. Now, with the advent of chaos theory, there is new support for Jung's perspective. Archetypes & Strange Attractors maps the correspondences between the dynamics of symbols in the psyche and the dynamics of chaos in the world of matter. Just as the material world oscillates between states of order and chaos, so also the individuation process involves stages of psychic balance and disruption. In both cases the great paradox holds: the wild dynamics of change are contained within a broader pattern -- the pattern of life itself. Archetypes & Strange Attractors is "must" reading for students of Jungian psychology, and any general reader with an interest in the application of chaos theory with developmental psychological phenomenon.
