He is one of the most influential psychiatrists in the world.
Through an expansive education and by authoring many books, Carl Jung donated so much to the study of the human psyche
that he is considered by many to stand next to, and not in the shadow of, the world’s leading pschoanalysist, Freud.
Always interested in spirituality and parapsychology, literature and alchemy, Jung dabbled in the arts of the spiritual world,
ever exploring the realms of unconscious human experience that was often being ignored in modern-day medicine.
He overcame his breakdown and found the modern system of Analytical Psychology. Feeling limited and enclosed by
science of the day, Jung decided to travel the world to explore and be an anthropologist of the mind of the people.

Nietzsche was a 19th-century German philosopher and classical philologist. He wrote critical texts on religion, morality,
contemporary culture, philosophy and science.
Nietzsche challenged the foundations of Christianity and traditional morality.
He believed in life, creativity, health, and the realities of the world we live in, rather than those situated in a world beyond.
Nietzsche's influence remains substantial within and beyond philosophy, notably in existentialism and postmodernism.
