Individuation Psychology: Essays in Honor of Murray Stein
A Festschrift in Honor of Dr. Stein's 80th Birthday
Available September 2 - Pre-order Today!
Chiron Publications is honored to publish a Festschrift celebrating Murray Stein, a man whose life and influence within Analytical Psychology has spanned several continents, wildly different cultures, several sweeping societal shifts, and now enters his ninth decade. He was forged in an American crucible, strengthened in Europe, and eventually matured into a world-wide phenomenon.
These essays explore individuation in varied ways and reveal Dr. Stein’s extensive impact on the world of Jungian psychoanalysis. An ambassador for post-Jungians, his own writings and the publication of others through his founding of Chiron Publications added valuable and novel insights about subjects as wide-ranging as Christianity, masculine psychology, and the practice of Jungian analysis.
The diverse topics contained in these essays reflect the fertile, cross-cultural and interdisciplinary perspective that has characterized Dr. Stein’s unique blend of scholarship, personal warmth, and far-reaching vision. From the times of the Delphic Oracle psychotherapists have illuminated the inner landscape where psyche dwells. Dr. Stein has witnessed countless developments and challenges in the decades after Jung’s death. His gentle, wise stewardship reflects what Guinid says about individuation, it is “a testimony of the inner process”. And Dr. Stein’s lifework succeeds at re-enchanting a world stripped of mystery and meaning by modernity as Roderick Main and Len Cruz observe.
After more than five decades of remarkable contributions, Murray Stein’s lifework remains relevant and through his impact on the K-pop band BTS, he has appealed to a new generation of seekers after inner gold. This is a testament to a highly individuated man who fully demonstrates an ongoing individuation, and we are eager to see what his next decade will bring.

Praise for Murray Stein “Murray has helped unlock the significance of Jung for making sense of (and responding to) the challenges of the twenty-first century. It is therefore an honour as well as a great pleasure to contribute to this Festschrift for Murray Stein, and to join with Chiron in celebrating his work as a Jungian who is a scholar—and a gentleman.”
- Paul Bishop
“Murray Stein's capacity to carry joy and pleasure on one shoulder while carrying the sorrows that life brings on the other—simultaneously—is a lifetime achievement. A well-known leader for many years, he has consistently held and maintained perspective and an overview of the worldwide Jungian community in remarkable ways.”
- Linda Carter
“Analyst, author, academic, administrator – Murray excels in every arena in which his positive attributes are abundantly on display. Above all, he exudes innate authority - a rare quality in the psychoanalytic profession - where he is an able spokesman for that international field.”
- Ann Casement
“Murray is a special human being, so full of life and creativity. As Erich Neumann has described in his books on the nature of creativity, Murray is definitely one of the 'Great Individuals' who is in touch with the creative essence of the unitary reality, that transpersonal realm that creates new light. It has been and continues to be a privilege to know him.”
- Nancy Furlotti
“Murray’s writing is often soaked in the hermetic secret sauce needed to transform letters, words and paragraphs into music, music for the inner ear. He is a judicious student of Jung’s work and a capable keeper of the flame. Murray’s own original work has given rise to an individuation psychology that extends and deepens what has gone before it. His words carry the melodic harmony needed to convey psychological meaning, meaning that lays far beyond the reach of the intellect. Murray’s work helped bring Jung’s sage individuation sheet music notations into song.”
- Dr. Jim Manganiello
