Summary

In this challenging and entertaining audio program, internationally recognized Jungian teacher and theorist James Hillman, Ph.D., presents the themes he writes about in his well-known book, The Soul's Code. The fantasy of the family remains the dominating theme of psychotherapy and psychotheory. In this recording, Dr. Hillman brings his critical eye, his wide eye - and often his absurd humor - to bear upon the myths that operate in our thoughts about family.

Very interesting but thin

This begins with a really interesting talk from Hillman - then followed by some hours of him in less interesting dialogue with an audience - the dialogue doesn’t really go anywhere, but has nuggets of flavoursome material.
