In the original section of the book, now entitled God--An Infantile Illusion?, Hans Kung traces Freud's views on religion and religious longing, compares Jung's and Adler's attitudes toward religion, shows that Freud's arguments against the existence of God are theologically unsound, and concludes with a frank and provocative discussion of what psychoanalysis may be able to teach the Christian Church.

A model of the clarity, honesty, and fairness we can always expect to find in Kung's writings. -John F.
