Peterson Podcast, Jordan Peterson repeatedly praised the text, describing it as an absolute classic and the finest book ever written on the shadow side of the maternal archetype.

Additionally, Mikhail Avdeev referenced the work on the same podcast, noting Neumann's assertion that only an individual with an integrated consciousness can help foster a healthy society.
