Jung in India

*Jung in India* is an account of Jung's history with India and his significant interface with Indian culture, people, religious thought and philosophy, set against the backdrop of colonial history. It is based on original archival research and highlights an important cross-cultural history in the field of depth psychology.

Jung in India (originally published in 2013) is the first publication to trace the history of Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung's history with India in depth. Based on original archival research, it describes Jung's unknown links with India, his journey to India in 1937-38, the places he visited, the events he participated in and the people he met as he toured the subcontinent. It locates the early history of analytical psychology in India, through Jung's lectures, interviews, talks, and the impressions of India that he gathered during his journey. As the only western psychoanalyst who engaged with India in depth, Carl Jung's links with India signify an important cross-cultural history of early 1900s. The critical introduction integrates contemporary ideas in analytical psychology, retaining the essence of the original work while offering new perspectives. The revised edition presents Jung's pioneering interface with India in refreshing new format and writing.
