An eye opener

Perfect gift for writers and artists. Helps you find the sources and meanings of signs, myths and your secret thoughts. Chock-full with information and references, wonderful to just open and peruse.

Good reference book

Has lots of pictures and covers a lot of topics. I got it used but it was still readable so all is good. No color pictures as the cover may dipict. But lots of black and white drawings. The topics are discribed in short conscise paragraphs. Not may are over a page long. That being said, it covers a lot of material and each chapter is made up of like topics.

Good Resource

This book is a good resource for those who seek a better understanding of the origin of symbols used around us every day. A symbol stands for something else; usually something invisible, or secret. I am particularly interested in recognizing esoteric meanings of symbols (and/or signs) that appear in logos. Most people who design the logos know exactly what they're doing, and many organizations use these particular logos and symbols intentionally because they know precisely what is represented. The average person may be unaware of what is being symbolically portrayed and not everyone who uses the logos understands the symbology or the meanings behind the symbols. I found this book to be good because it has simple descriptions and clarifies aspects of symbols along with illustrations. It is not an exhaustive resource for researching symbols, but I consider it a good book to have in my library. I gave 4 stars rather than 5 because of the brevity of this book.

Great important to gain

Expected more photos and bigger book , however the book is well worth it with plenty of knowledge and wisdom to learn about our various cultures and world. a well thank you to the writers and publisher for an outstanding book.

fine volume of symbols of every type and character

good book on the diagramatic representations which have come down to us from history. much defining and background on most of those. a few sections covering diverse categorical subdivisions and of almost every kind, from primitive designs to math to nature and more.
