<p>Edited by Murray Stein and Thomas Arzt, the essays in the series<em> <strong>Jung&#39;s Red Book for Our Time: Searching for Soul under Postmodern Conditions</strong></em><strong> </strong>are geared to the recognition that the posthumous publication of <em>The Red Book: Liber Novus</em> by C.G. Jung in 2009 was a meaningful gift to our contemporary world.</p><p><em>The Red Book</em> can be considered as a contribution to the &ldquo;Golden Chain&rdquo; (<em>aurea catena</em>) of the world&rsquo;s imaginative literature reaching back to the ancient Sumerian <em>Epic of Gilgamesh</em>. As Jung describes this tradition in a letter to Max Rychner, &ldquo;<em>Faust</em> is the most recent pillar in that bridge of the spirit which spans the morass of world history, beginning with the Gilgamesh epic, the <em>I Ching</em>, the Upanishads, the <em>Tao-te-Ching</em>, the fragments of Heraclitus, and continuing in the Gospel of St. John, the letters of St. Paul, in Meister Eckhart and in Dante.&rdquo; <em>The Red Book</em> extends the &ldquo;Golden Chain&rdquo; into our era. Each of the 18 essays in this third volume of the series, <em>Jung&rsquo;s Red Book for Our Time</em>, is unique, and all of them converge on the central theme of the relevance of <em>The Red Book</em> for people today in search of soul under postmodern conditions.</p><p>This is the third volume of a multi-volume series set up on a global and multicultural level and includes essays from the following distinguished Jungian analysts and scholars:</p><p>- <strong>Murray Stein</strong> and <strong>Thomas Arzt:</strong> Introduction</p><p>- <strong>Stephen A.
