Major Edit Begun
This article has been rated "C" quality by Wikipedia -- meaning it needs major revision. It is now 5 years since publication of Jung's Red Book: Liber Novus. The entry here has received no major improvement since 2010; as it stands, it is disjointed, inaccurate, and lacking adequate references.
On 25 September 2014 I submitted the beginning of a major revision of the first sections of the article. As time allows, I am revising this edit, and will eventual complete a revision of the entire article. My area of study focuses on Jung and his history, and I have published several articles (including an encyclopedia entry) on Jung and the Red Book in peer-reviewed journals. I do reference some of these publications. A listing of my peer reviewed and published essays on Jung is available here: Published Works by Lance S. Owens
Any comments or additions are of course welcome -- this is Wikipedia, and it requires collective effort. The goal is make this an "A" quality article, not a "C"....

An "Experiment" Is Not This Vague
There's no clarity on how this "experimentation" was carried out or who was included in the "drama" entered into on these occasions of "deliberately evoking a fantasy in a waking state." Were these dramas enacted after hours when the doctor was alone or were family members, patients and even perhaps the soldiers he commanded brought into them in some way? And what sort of "fantasies" and "dramas" are we talking about here? Some examples, please.68.178.50.46 (talk) 23:42, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
This article tells nothing about the content of the book
The characters of the book, Salome, Elijah the snake... most readers won't give much about all the details about the book, but nothing about what the book tells about.
Jung - Considerations for article update.
Jung is a mad man. His whole teachings should be discarded.
He thinks The Bible is written by mad men, idolaters, who use hallucinogens, and thus considers himself qualified for writing Liber Novus aswell.
He does not understand the simple theological reality, that teachings regress into idolatry, that has happened so many times in history.
He seems to have no clue what monotheism is. Indeed common related talk is of greek gods. It is pantheonic, the one thing clearly monotheism forbids.
