Ego and Archetype by Edward F Edinger

This book is about the individual's journey to psychological wholeness, known in analytical psychology as the process of individuation. Edward Edinger traces the stages in this process and relates them to the search for meaning through encounters with symbolism in religion, myth, dreams, and art. For contemporary men and women, Edinger believes, the encounter with the self is equivalent to the discovery of God. The result of the dialogue between the ego and the archetypal image of God is an experience that dramatically changes the individual's worldview and makes possible a new and more meaningful way of life.
Edinger, Edward F.: - Edward F. Edinger, MD (1922-1998), was a supervising psychiatrist at Rockland State Hospital in Orangeburg, NY, and later was a founding member of the C. G. Jung Foundation, Manhattan, and the C. G. Jung Institute of New York. He was the institute's president from 1968 to 1979, when he moved to Los Angeles. There, he continued his practice for another 19 years, becoming an analyst, supervisor, and faculty member at the C. G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles. Dr. Edinger was a prolific author and lecturer.
