I really appreciate Mark Vernon as an intelligent man who possesses a deep understanding of the nature of complicated subjects. So, when I found out he had written something on Jung, I was very excited to read it. This didn't disappoint. Even though it was really just a primer on Jung, it was still enjoyable. Short and easy to understand, it provides some interesting reflection on Jung. I also recommend his YouTube lecture on Jung as well to supplement this if the reader enjoys Vernon's voice in this book.

Good, very simple introduction to Carl Jung, but I was hoping for a little bit more. Could’ve gone through another round of editing as well.

Interesting overview of an interesting man. I'm not incredibly into archetypes, but I see how they have some explanatory power at least on a higher emergent property level. I'm curious to read up more on Jung, and perhaps even Jordan Peterson now, who I believe was deeply influenced by Jungian archetypes.
