Philemon Foundation
The Philemon Foundation is a non-profit organization that exists to prepare for publication the Complete Works of Carl Gustav Jung, beginning with the previously unpublished manuscripts, seminars and correspondences. It is estimated that an additional 30 volumes of work will be published and that the work will take three decades to complete.
History

Shamdasani is the co-founder of the Philemon Foundation with American Jungian analyst Stephen A. Martin.The works to date constitute the Philemon series. Several translators and editors have contributed within the series, developing a few topical sub-series on dreams, psychology, correspondence, lectures.
