Hull of the translation by H.G.Baynes) is based on a slightly revised version that is published as Volume 6 of the collected works and includes some other of Jung's texts on typology.

  • Parsons, Talcot. "The Social System." The Free Press, 1951. Talcott Parsons has laid the foundations on which Trompenaers built his cross-cultural database. In particular, Talcott researched five concept-pairs or pattern-variables which predict value-orientation. The foundations of this work date back to the book "Structure of Social Action" (Parsons, 1937).
