Biography
John Ryan Haule is a Jungian Analyst in private practice in Boston and a training analyst at the C.G Jung Institute, Boston.
"The two-volume set integrates an enormous range of research and theory from
diverse fields into a powerful apologia for the concepts of synchronicity and archetype.
It is very useful for those who have some doubts about the concepts, or who have
been searching for supportive material to their understanding of the concepts... Haule does well at returning to the line of his argument so that the reader can see the
value of the particular excursions he takes." - Arlo Compaan, Journal of Analytical Psychology, Vol. 57, 2012
