Said Zurich's Dr. Adolf Guggen-biihl: "Man is basically nonrational; he has too many basic, instinctual drives ever to become wholly rational or logical, and medicine must help him to accept this fact." To Jung & Co., the latter-day worship of rationality...
...absorbed an interest in Oriental cultures. Today Old Master Igor Stravinsky, 76, admits that Boulez has influenced even him, regards Le Marteau as the "most [attractive work] from a composer of the younger generation." He adds simply: "I like to listen to Boulez." So will the more adventurous and patient among U.S. record buyers...
