Robin Robertson has spent a life-time bridging the worlds of psychology,
science, business and the arts. He's been a clinical psychologist,
university professor, writer and lecturer who has published fifteen
books and more than two hundred articles in either psychology or his
hobby field of magic. Before becoming a psychologist, he was originally
a vice-president of software development for a large insurance company.
Then for over thirty years, he was also a computer software designer and consultant to a multi-employer pension plan. He has separate
undergraduate degrees in mathematics and English literature, as well as
an M.A. in counseling psychology, and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology.
Robin's books, often on Jungian psychology or the relationship
between psychology and science, have gone through multiple printings,
new editions, and foreign translations. From 1986 until his retirement in
2019, he was a writer, editor, columnist and editorial board member for the Jungian journal
Psychological Perspectives (a beautiful journal that speaks not
merely to specialists, but to everyone who loves Jung.)
For years, he was also heavily involved with the applications of chaos theory in
psychology as a writer, editor, speaker, and officer of the "Society for
Chaos Theory in Psychology and the Life Sciences." He has also been a consulting editor and contributor for the cybernetics
journal Cybernetics & Human Knowing (a journal that looks at deep
issues about the nature of reality).
He is a life-time amateur magician, and a member of the Order of
Merlin of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, who has published
or co-published six magic books and many original effects.

Psychological Perspectives (Jungian journal)
I've been associated with Psychological
Perspectives for many years, and only recently retired from the
editorial board. Many of my
best articles have been published here. Some have been republished
in my Kindle volume: Inner Voices. My book Jung and Frodo was originally serialized over two years in
Psychological Perspectives.
