Illustrated throughout with revealing images, this is the first and only work in which the world-famous Swiss psychologist explains to the layperson his enormously influential theory of symbolism as revealed in dreams.

Review of 'Man and his symbols' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

If you consider this book for when it was written, that cultural and social space was much different than it is today, it’s certainly a fine book. Read with a contemporary eye and This is a sexist, elitist, and profoundly bigoted word salad. There’s structural misogyny and then there is this regrettable book. I don’t want to burn it, but maybe forget it in a library.
