. The transference is illustrated and interpreted with a set of symbolic pictures, and the bond between psychotherapist and patient is shown to be a function of the kinship libido. Far from being pathological in its effects, kinship libido has an essential role to play in the work of individuation and in establishing an organic society based on the psychic connection of its members with one another and with their own roots.''''

. Jung repeatedly emphasizes the importance of the psychology of parents and teachers in a child's development. He underlines the fact that an unsatisfactory psychological relationship between parents may be an important cause of disorders in childhood. He maintained that the education of children needs teachers who not only know about learning but who can also develop their own personalities. A large part of this book is devoted to expounding Jung's views on these important subjects. There is also an outline of the theory of child development, a snapshot from the life of a girl called Anna and her parents, and a discussion of marriage as a psychological relationship. Finally there is a chapter on child development and individuation.''''

Vol 18. ''The Symbolic Life''

''The Symbolic Life'', volume 18 in ''The Collected Works'', contains miscellaneous writings that Jung published after the ''Collected Works'' had been planned; minor and fugitive works that he wished to assign to a special volume, and early writings that came to light in the course of research. Originally planned as a brief final volume in the Collected Works, ''The Symbolic Life'' has become the largest volume in the series, and one of unusual interest. It contains 160 items spanning sixty years; they include forewords, replies to questionnaires, encyclopedia articles, occasional addresses, and letters on technical subjects.'''' Collection of this material relied on three circumstances: First, after Jung returned from medical practice, he devoted more time to writing—after 1950 he wrote about sixty books and papers. Second, research uncovered reviews, reports and articles from the early years of his career. Finally, Jung's files yielded several finished or nearly finished papers that survived in manuscript.'''' Volume 18 includes three longer works: "The Tavistock Lectures" (1936); "Symbols and the Interpretation of Dreams" (1961); and "The Symbolic Life", the transcript of a 1939 seminar given in London.''''

Vol 19. General Bibliography

Replacing the 1979 edition, this volume is a current record, through 1990, of all of Jung's publications in German and in English. It records the initial publication of each original work by Jung, each translation into English, and all significant new editions, including paperbacks and publications in periodicals. The contents of the respective volumes of the ''Collected Works of C. G. Jung'' and the ''Gesammelte Werke'' (published in Switzerland) are listed in parallel to show the interrelation of the two editions. Jung's seminars are dealt with in detail. Where possible, information is provided about the origin of works that were first conceived as lectures. There are indexes of all publications, personal names, organizations and societies, and periodicals.


Vol 20. General Index

This volume is the general index to the eighteen published textual volumes in the ''Collected Works of C.G. Jung''. The comprehensive indexing goes beyond the volume indexes, and includes sub-indexes to important general topics, such as Alchemical Collections; Codices and Manuscripts; Freud; and the sub-indexing for the Bible arranged by book, chapter and verse. The General Index, with the General Bibliography of C.G. Jung's Writings (Volume 19 of the ''Collected Works''), together complete the publication of the ''Collected Works of C.G. Jung'' in English.
