"Towards the end of his life, C. G. Jung issued a challenge to an international congress of psychiatrists: ‘It will assuredly be a long time before the physiology and pathology of the brain and the psychology of the unconscious are able to join hands. Till then they must go their separate ways. But psychiatry, whose concern is the total man, is forced by its task of understanding and treating the sick to consider both sides, regardless of the gulf that yawns between the two. . . .’ (Jung, 1958)."
