With popular culture and media constantly promoting imminent doom - from preppers concerned about zombies and civil unrest, to environmentalists fretting over imminent climate catastrophes, to Christian rapturists - this book is highly psychologically relevant today. It does however, focus on the Judaeo-Christian mythology of apocalypse in its analysis and it is not really intended for those unfamiliar with Jungian psychology. (
