Cover of Petteri Pietikainen: Alchemists of Human Nature (PDF)

A study of Modernist utopias of the mind. This book examines the psychodynamic writings of Otto Gross, C G Jung, Wilhelm Reich and Erich Fromm. It argues, utopianism became increasingly important to the fundamental ambitions of all four thinkers, and places the ‘utopian impulse’ with the historical context of the early twentieth century.
