Three talks by Stephen Abrams, a psychologist, on areas in which, in his view, the thought of C.G. Jung has been misunderstood or misinterpreted.

But Jung claimed that Aldous Huxley's optimistic pronouncements on mescalin placed the experimenter in the position of the sorcerer's apprentice, who learns how to call up the ghosts but doesn't know how to get rid of them.
