Series: The Collected Works of Joseph Campbell
Joseph Campbell wrote a lot of nonsense, but my, did he write well. You could get drunk inhaling draughts from the depths of the psyche while spinning weightlessly among the stars.
my favorite Campbell book. . .i especially loved the chapters on the Mythologies of War & Zen. . .
My favorite of Campbell's books; it was my first exposure to ideas from eastern philosophy.
