We may ask why Jung biographies are so filled with shortcomings? How did Jung become a fiction? This book addresses these issues. It demonstrates the pitfalls and fallacies of such works, and sets out how his life and work should be approached on a historical basis, drawing on decades of archival investigation and new documentation.

Claims that Jung was a would-be prophet around whom followers gathered in a hero cult have been revived in more extreme terminology, generating a great deal of attendant publicity, by Richard Noll. In this book, the author looks into the documentary evidence for Noll's claims.
