From the Paper:

Carl Gustav Jung today stands as one of the most popular and influential psychologists whose perspectives have extended its influence well beyond the traditional confines of psychiatry. Jung's work has been criticized as being imprecise and numinous (Atkinson, 1993, p.545).
"The consequences of Jung's work have influenced significantly our way of thinking. Freudians have called Jung's theories as mysticism or religious in nature but Jung is remembered more fondly versus Freudian theories. Jung's theories have influenced motivational programs like the Alcoholics Anonymous as well as paved the way for a positivist approach in personality testing such as the popular Myer's-Briggs Test.
Jung was not afraid to study together scientific psychology and mysticism, religion and parapsychology, a traditional taboo of his field. However, because of his initiatives in this field, we are realizing more about ourselves and extending our realities. If one is to admire another for one's determination and open mindedness, then Jung certainly is a person to be admired.
