Jung and the Monotheisms brings together a range of scholars to provide an exploration of some of the essential aspects of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The contributors include leading Jungian analysts and scholars, among them Baroness Vera von der Heydt, Ann Belford Ulanov and Murray Stein. They bring to bear psychological, religious and historical perspectives in an attempt to uncover the nature and psychology of the three monotheisms. The book provides a fresh and profound source of interpretation and comparison of Islam within the western psyche. The editor, Jungian analyst Joel Ryce-Menuhin, is especially concerned to bring both the essential and comparative elements of the religious psychology of Islam to the attention of the contemporary reader and to provide a forum for an increased dialogue between the three monotheisms.
