Map of the Soul - Shadow: Our Hidden Self: 2

This is a wise book. This man writs with years of experience and compassion. Well worth reading and even used for journaling one’s own experiences as if in dialogue with the author.

I loved Murray Stein's earlier book, "Map of the Soul," which was a wonderful overview of Jung's ideas about the human psyche. This book however, is completely different. Strangely enough it is a collaboration with the band, BTS. It might be a good book for a teenager or young adult who is new to Jungian ideas and interested in popular music. Personally, I donated it to our local library.

I guess this is what happens when an accomplished scholar tries to get hip, slick and cool. He ends up being none of the above. It's a confusing attempt to respond to a band using his work in their music, and it utterly fails.
