Prvi put na srpskom jeziku, u izvanrednom prevodu jednog od nasih najistaknutijih germanista, Branimira Zivojinovica, pojavljuje se Jungovo remek-delo koje govori o tajni spajanja suprotnosti u alhemiji. Remek-delo pozne stvaralačke faze K.G. Junga nastajalo je tokom punih deset godina (1944-1954) i govori o tajni spajanja suprotnosti u alhemiji. Autor u predgovoru ističe kako je nastojao da prikaže bogatstvo ideja i simbola koji leže skriveni u zanemarenim traktatima ove često pogrešno shvatane veštine. Reč je o saglasnosti između iskustava alehemije i saznanjima psihologije nesvesnog. Činioci koji se spajaju u konjunkciji zamišljeni su kao suprotnosti koje su ili neprijateljski protivstavljene ili se u ljubavi uzajamno privlače. Najpre je posredi dualizam, na primer, suprotnosti humidum (vlažan) - siccum (suv), frigidum (hladan) - calidum (topao), superiora (gornje) - inferiora (donje), spiritus (duh) - corpus (telo), coelum (nebo) - terra (zemlja), ignis (vatra) - aqua (voda)...

However, the work does not seek to do away with mystery where it still exists, and the last part of the book makes clear that we do not understand the world and the mind as well as future scholars will. Jung's work is huge in its scope, and the reader must have read some of his related works such as the Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, to fully appreciate quite how significant his thoughts are. As this is one of his harder books, that develops his simpler ideas further, it is probably a good idea to read some of his easier works first. ( )
