“While Jung considered The Red Book to be his most important work, only a handful of people have ever seen it. Now, in a complete facsimile and translation, it is available to scholars and the general public. It is an astonishing example of calligraphy and art on a par withThe Book of Kells and the illuminated manuscripts of William Blake. This publication of The Red Book is a watershed that will cast new light on the making of modern psychology.

Here’s a great article, several pages long, from the New York Times about the red book: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/20/magazine/20jung-t.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1 An excerpt: “The book detailed an unabashedly psychedelic voyage through his own mind, a vaguely Homeric progression of encounters with strange people taking place in a curious, shifting dreamscape.”
Cool thanks
