The theory of synchronicity -- Synchronicity and analytical psychology -- Intellectual difficulties -- Synchronicity in context -- Sources and influences -- Religion, science and synchronicity -- Synchronicity applied -- Synchronicity and Jung's critique of science, religion and society -- Synchronicity and the spiritual revolution. Pt. I. 1. 2. Pt. 2. 3. 4. Pt. 3. 5. 6.
"Jung's theory of synchronicity radically challenges the entrenched assumptions of mainstream modern culture in the West. It is one of the most fascinating yet difficult and discomfiting of Jung's psychological theories." "The Rupture of Time aims to clarify what Jung really meant by synchronicity, why the idea was so important to him and how it informed his thinking about modern western culture." "Focusing closely on Jung's own writings and statements, this book discloses that the theory of synchronicity is not an inconsequential addendum to analytical psychology but is central to the psychological project that occupied Jung throughout his professional life. This much-needed clarification of one of Jung's central tenets will be of great-interest-to all analytical psychologists and scholars engaged with Jungian thought."--BOOK JACKET.
