In this fascinating work, Karl Konig offers a detailed study of the human soul's different characteristics. He looks at a range of human experiences, including pain, anxiety, fear, shame and anger, and he distinguishes four stages of consciousness: normal day-consciousness, dreaming, sleeping and deep sleep.

Although much has changed in the field of psychology since The Human Soul was written in the middle of the twentieth century, this book nevertheless remains a meaningful exploration into the mysteries and complexities of the human psyche.

This new Karl Konig Archive edition of the classic text has been updated with never-before published lectures by Konig on psychology and the human soul, including notes from the two talks that originally inspired this book.
