Overview of symbols and how they have been used to communicate ideas about life and the natural and supernatural worlds.

Book split into a number of main sections: spirit incarnate; soul, mind and supernatural; animal world; plant kingdom; spirits of the cosmos; art and artefacts; patterns and graphics; symbol systems.

Lots of clear photos and diagrams plus easy to read and engaging text.

Interesting reading, but I was slightly disappointed in the lack of detail in many cases, and I was not satisfied with the boast of completeness. It deserves a further edition (if it hasn't happened already, that is) with more entries and editorial corrections, as there are several punctuation errors and the rare margin note marker pointing to a missing note! Still, I've yet to see anything more thorough in its broadness.
