| 1. The Hero with a Thousand Faces (Bollingen Series) | 
|
By: Joseph Campbell Publisher: New World Library July 28, 2008
I find it funny how many people discredit this book considering I mean we all have they same brain and the perceptions that come from our brain, whether we have studied something or not or whether we were influenced or not science explains to use that we will recreate a similar story to fit our understanding of life on earth. We all think the same, we all have the same method of understanding things... more

By: Henry Campbell Black, Joseph R. Nolan, Jacqueline M. Nolan-Haley, West Publishing Company Publisher: West Group 1991-07
It came on time in the mail in the condition it was promised to be. A few days later i thought i might have to return it, so i emailed the seller to ask if and how i could, and he replied in the next few hrs- they seemed nice, and told me i could... I didn't end up having to return it, but it was nice to know that i could (and that I wouldn't get any trouble from the seller). I recommend this seller... more

| 4. Pathways to Bliss (EasyRead Large Edition): Mythology and Personal Transformation | 
|
By: Joseph Campbell Publisher: ReadHowYouWant December 24, 2009
I have to give this one five stars because it's Joseph Campbell and then take one away because it's Joseph Campbell. That is, there are a few instances of what might be penetrating insights. There is ringing and memorable language. There are sweeping generalizations. There are gaping errors of fact and theory. The last mostly in the areas of anthropology and history. In general I feel a fool for buying... more

| 6. The Portable Jung (Portable Library) | 
|
By: Carl G. Jung Publisher: Penguin (Non-Classics) December 09, 1976
This is a wonderful/affordable one-stop-shop to get acquainted with Jung's thought. I purchased it in particular for "Answer to Job." It's comforting to know I'm not the only one who's had difficulty with the Biblical writing. This compilation is worth owning for this small portion alone. In reference to "the storm," you're probably aware of the pending publication of Jung's final work "The Red Book."... more

| 7. Myths to live by (Bantam Books) | 
|
By: Joseph Campbell Publisher: Bantam Books 1978
I love the work of Joseph Campbell. I find this book and the "The Power of Myth" as his most accessible works. "Myths to Live By" flows in a conversational manner, free from the pedantic language of academia that dilutes much of Campbell's other works. This book is easy to digest and unfolds much like a exciting journey... more

| 10. The Masks of God, Vol. 3: Occidental Mythology | 
|
By: Joseph Campbell Publisher: Penguin (Non-Classics) November 01, 1991
Many other excellent longer reviews have been written for this book, so I'll just keep mine (relatively) short. I bought and read this volume first, and it inspired me to order the other three volumes of "The Masks of God". Although I'm not a specialist in comparative religion, I found this volume an excellent introduction: covering the entire history of religion west of and including Persia, but... more
