Dr. Miller provides the reader with a comprehensive view of one of Jung?s most important early works. In addition to tracing its vital and central role in Jung?s analytical psychology, Miller links the transcendent function to other psychological theories, as well as to ancient and contemporary philosophical, scientific, social, artistic, and religious traditions. He gives examples of ways it appears in everyday life and in human relationships. Again, Dr. Miller mirrors the transcendent function itself as he goes deeply into a particular aspect while at the same time amplifying it with wide ranging scholarship. In discussing the scope of his study, Jeffrey Miller notes that his ?book does not venture into the related and important area of the clinical application of the transcendent function.? Even so, I highly recommend it to students and professionals across the psychotherapies. The most effective method of psychotherapeutic treatment is one that aligns itself with the natural, integrative function of the psyche. In this sense, a method and its underlying healing function are two aspects of the same thing. To conclude, this book is all about the creative, integrative, healing function in the psyche that united the opposites. I turn now to Jeffrey Miller?s outstanding contribution, which speaks for itself.
