“The first truly satisfying account of Jung’s personal engagement with the modern art movement and its pioneers in America and England.” (John Beebe, past president of the C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco and founding editor of Jung Journal: Culture and Psyche )

“While we know a great deal about Freud and Freudians, the impact made by C. G. Jung on twentieth-century cultural history, in Europe and in America, is much less studied. This clearly-written and concise book is an excellent survey of Jung’s wide-ranging influence.” (Suzanne Marchand, Boyd Professor of History, Louisiana State University, USA)

“It's difficult to see Jung as a modernist, and the great man himself doesn't make it easy for us… In this brilliant study, Jay Sherry pulls it off, showing that Jung still has some surprises in store for those who think they know him. An important and necessary rethink that will stimulate much debate.” (Gary Lachman, author of twenty books, instructorat the California Institute of Integral Studies, and founding member of the pop group Blondie)
