Jung asserts that belief in a psyche or soul is as valid as the belief in matter or any other "materialistic" concept. Mind is neither more inscrutable nor metaphysical than is matter or other physical elements and processes. "To postulate mind is no more fantastic than to postulate matter. Other chapters deal with such familiar topics of psychoanalysis as dream analysis as well as a theory of psychological types.
