 Carl Gustav Jung
Jung was probably unaware of the Friesian background of Otto's term "numinosity" when he began to use it for his Archetypes, but it is unlikely that he would object to the way in which Otto's theory, through Fries, fits into Kantian epistemology and metaphysics.
Jung was often at pains not to complicate his theory of the Archetypes by committing himself to a metaphysical theory -- he wanted the theory to work whether he was talking about the brain or about the Transcendent -- but that was merely a concession to the materialistic bias of contemporary science.
Jung's Kantianism enables him to avoid the materialism and reductionism of Freud ("all of civilization is a substitute for incest") and, with a great breadth of learning, employs principles from Kant, Schopenhauer, and Otto that are easily conformable to the Kant-Friesian tradition.

 Carl Gustav Jung
Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) was the son of a Swiss pastor.
Jung was Freud's favourite disciple, and his defection, over his agreements in many areas - especially Freud's over-emphasis on sexuality (which can be seen in perspective as a response to and interpretation of the puritanical Victorian attitude of the time), and his rejection of spirituality, occultism, and religion - was a great loss for Freud.

Skinner, is minimal; but his influence - especially his idea of the "Collective Unconscious" - in New Paradigm and New Age thought, as well as the popular mythology of the day, is truely tremendous.

Jung and his contacts left much material behind from which to draw details and anecdotes for this biography, everything from Jung's personal dreams to reactions of notables such as Freud to comments made at dinner parties.
Is it because McLynn overplays negative aspects of Jung's personality, or because there are certain generations of American psychologists who continue to deny that Jung was not an unpleasant man? With nothing else to go on besides this book, I have no way to judge the veracity of the claims myself.
