The stress of life

Patterns of Attachment

Without exception, sadomasochistic subjects (n =48), unlike controls (n =35), are found to have developed insecure internal models of personal attachment, as a result of childhoods which were all problematic in one way or another. Their capacity for metacognition and their coherence of mind are found to be, on average, less than that of controls.

The Adult Attachment Interview

Freud's wish for control and Jung's pugna cious ambition precipitated their final break. In his personal relationships Jung emerges badly. His long marriage survived only because of his wife's forbearance; his notorious womanising with colleagues, pu pils and patients is now well known. His wife was induced to accept a mmnage a trois with one mistress, Toni Wolff. Jung was a charismatic, difficult personality with a â€ ̃¿ mediumistic' intuition, who attracted both men and women throughout his life. As McLynn aptly shows, he clashed with men and kept few male friends, but was always surrounded by loyal female disciples. McLynn is also fair in his treatment of the question of Jung's anti-Semitism and his ambiguous dealings with the Nazis. This biography is informative and com prehensive in its coverage of Jung's personal and public life. However, it emphasises his significance today as guru of New Age interest in Eastern thought, the paranormal and astrology, rather than recognising his place in the contemporary psychoanalytic and psychotherapeutic world.
