Part One, on psychological types, the shadow and the persona, leads on to a section on archetypes and complexes. This is followed by chapters on projection and identification, anima and animus. The text then turns to the midlife crisis, and to neurosis and individuation. It then addresses the analytic experience; and concludes with a series of writings on psychological development, self-knowledge, personality and individuation, and the religious dimension.
