The Power of Myth is one of my favorite books. Joseph Campbell was a true maverick, and he daringly explored the inner workings of the human psyche with a sense of fearlessness in this book.
I highly recommend Joseph Campbell's books to anyone who loves reading about mythology. He's an extremely intelligent man.
