The Rupture of Time aims to clarify what Jung really meant by synchronicity, why the idea was so important to him and how it informed his thinking about modern western culture. Areas examined include:
- how the theory fits into Jung's overall psychological model and the significance of its apparent inconsistencies
- the wide range of personal, intellectual and social contexts of Jung's thinking on the topic
- how Jung himself applied the theory of synchronicity within his critique of science, religion, and society
- the continuing relevance of the theory for understanding issues in contemporary detraditionalised religion.
