Jung & Reich : the body as shadow

"Jung & Reich: The Body as Shadow is an exploration of the lives and significant ideas of two principal figures of psychoanalysis, Carl Jung and Wilhelm Reich, who never met even though they were contemporaries. Author John Conger's unique treatment of their personalities and points of view - as well as what they might have learned from one another - is at once a brush with the hypothetical, a blended biography of similarities and differences, and a conscientious assessment of the two men's theories."--BOOK JACKET
