Dick Russell writes biography of James Hillman

James Hillman, eminent psychologist and Thomas Moore's mentor and friend, died Thursday 27 October, 2011. Amazon.com promotes the first volume of Hillman's authorized biography, The Life and Ideas of James Hillman: The Making of a Psychologist by Dick Russell, to be launched April 2012. Barque continues to update links to James Hillman tributes.

According to the publisher, "In The Making of a Psychologist, we follow Hillman from his youth in the heyday of Atlantic City, through post-war Paris and Dublin, travels in Africa and Kashmir, and onward to Zurich and the Jung Institute, which appointed him its first director of studies in 1960. This first of a two-volume authorized biography is the result of hundreds of hours of interviews with Hillman and others over a seven-year period."
