Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This is title no. 99 in the series Studies in Jungian Psychology by Jungian Analysts. The Secret World of Drawings is a book so helpful and practical that a wide variety of psychotherapists, health care practitioners, educators, and artists continue to replace their much-beloved dog-eared copies every few years. 100 illustrations (74 in color).

A rich reference section invites the reader to an in-depth voyage through other readings in art therapy, Jungian psychology, mythology, and symbolism.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 131-143) and index.
