From the front page of Wiki:
The Red Book by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung is published and displayed in public for the first time.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Book_(Jung)
The Liber Novus. Written after Jung's break from Freud, during what many believe was a psychotic episode as he had what he described as "a voluntary confrontation with the unconscious". Written in the span of sixteen years; over 200 pages of illustration and calligraphic text all from his own hand. THIS was the book he worked on while he developed his theories of archetypes, the collective unconscious, and individuation. And until 2001, his greedy little heirs refused to share it with no more than a select handful. But now...now as of yesterday, it is available to the public, completely translated. Jung's most personal and important writings.
I...I am so glad no one is around to see me right now. I'm shaking like a giddy schoolgirl, it's ridiculous. Sweet cryin' Jesus, I need to find a bookstore. NOW.
