I approached this episode a little differently, starting by asking Sonu how he thought Carl Jung would respond to the question ‘What is Life?’ Sonu Shamdasani is leading expert on the work of Carl Jung. He is the author and editor of many books, including Jung's Red Book and Black Books. He is a professor at University College London.
