The first book on the history of the profession of analytical psychology from its origins in 1913. Because Kirsch was personally involved in many aspects of Jungian history, he was well equipped to write the history of the 'movement', and to document its growth throughout the world, with chapters covering individual geographical areas, including the UK, USA, and Australia. He also provided new information on the ever-controversial subject of Jung's relationship to Nazism, Jews and Judaism.
