But it found the popular audience Jung had always hoped for, and inspired many to become psychoanalysts. Memories, Dreams, Reflections is controversial because it was still in manuscript form when Jung died, and required further editing to become the final version we read today. The descriptions of his visions, dreams and fantasies, which he considered his 'greatest wealth', fill the book this he did not for indulgence's sake, but because he considered them the prism through which he could perceive the collective psyche of humankind. Carl Jung's autobiographical Memories, Dreams, Reflections, in contrast, focuses on the great psychologist's spiritual and intellectual awakenings, rather than the external events of his life.
Most autobiographies cover the main events of a life, with the reader often left with only glimpses of the inner life of the author.
