Jung on UFOs
A Landmark of Psychological Research
Are flying saucers really enigmatic vehicles from beyond Earth? Or are they profoundly human fantasy: modern man’s vision of wholeness and serenity in a fragmented and violent world?
The great psychologist C.G. Jung brilliantly probes the relationship between UFOs and mankind’s troubled unconscious. He explores and explains flying saucer symbolism in dreams, psychotherapeutic case studies and contemporary art and ends with a startling conclusion: While not denying the possibility of extra-terrestrial visitation, Dr. Jung sees UFO data as the New Mythology, and flying saucers as the Gods of the Age of Science.
FLYING SAUCERS, appearing for the first time in paperback, is both a disturbing and fascinating work. It is a pivotal thinker’s invaluable contribution to psychological research: “Intriguing and provocative.”- SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
