Did I Care Enough?: An Honest Account of a Caregiver Book

This book is both a journey of the mind and test of wit. It's a test of wit because Hayman has written a biography of Jung so meticulously detailed and at times disjointedly organized that the reader will want to give up on the mission of finishing the book many times. It's also a test of wit because like all humans - Jung is human - and he often acted on his temptations and followed through with them that a reader will often ask oneself, how could this man inspire a global movement? But Jung did, and Hayman tells us why Jung is a revelatory sage to and the hero we needed in the 20th century to deliver us into a new psychology and help us graduated from the limits of Freudian thought. After reading this book, I feel I got to know Jung quite well and know his life much better than I understand his works. This knowledge will be critical when informing an interpretation of his works and understanding why his philosophy and interpretations changed throughout his life. Profound!
