Preface

"The reality of psyche is the conceptual and experiential axis around which Jungian psychology is organized; everything else such as archetypes and collective unconscious, the components of psyche . . . originate from this primary understanding. The reality of psyche means exactly that. It is real and not just a metaphorical construct . . . ."

--Stephanie Buck, The Reality of Psyche: The Foundation of Analytical Psychology, C.G. Jung Society of Vermont [online text]
