Patient X is convinced his poodle is a fraud and his mother is an imposter. Exploration of the brains of patient X along with various other patients with obscure unusual syndromes makes this book an irresistible read for every level – from the interested to the professional neurologist. The author explores a huge variety of interests from phantom limbs to emotions corresponding with physical attributes, and even the underpinnings of human language. Even learn why it is we should give much thought to the processes of thought.

I have no idea where to classify this book by a member of the Palo Alto group: "A study of interactional patterns, pathologies, and paradoxes". If it sounds turgid, it is, but it's worth reading if you're interested in the behavioural effects of human communication. But don't say I didn't warn you... it's a little hard going.

Subtitled "How brain software programs you & youir world", this book is about quantum psychology. Amazingly good reading.

How we create trauma and recreate it, and use self-induced trance to hold ourselves in a pattern of response.

Good introduction to Jung. It has pictures. On every page. And cartoons. And comic strips. Jung made easy peasy...

I LIKE this book! 65 "articles" by various people (from Jung to Joseph Campbell) about the SHADOW archetype - but not just individual human shadows - group and collective shadows. The back of the book calls this "an overview of the dark side of human nature". It's a great book and not hard to read as it's in 65 bite-sized chunks. "Although we think of the shadow as containing only darkness, as Jung stated, it's essence is pure gold".

It's a big thick book, and easy to read about the great man himself.
