Publisher's summary


In "Behind the Modern Mythos," embark on a transformative journey through the unseen narratives that quietly sculpt our beliefs, behaviors, and the society at large. This thought-provoking book peels back the layers of modern life to reveal the ancient yet ever-present myths that guide us—on progress, success, individualism, digital existence, binary oppositions, and the universal quest for meaning.

With clarity and insight, "Behind the Modern Mythos" navigates the philosophical underpinnings of the stories we live by, inviting readers to question, understand, and ultimately reshape the narratives that shape our world. From the illusion of perpetual progress to the digital gods of our age, from the myth of a singular purpose to the stark divides tearing at the fabric of society, this book offers a compelling look at the myths that define our times.

More than just a critique, "Behind the Modern Mythos" is a call to action—a guide for individuals and communities to forge new myths that embrace the complexity, diversity, and potential of contemporary life. It challenges us to rethink what it means to live well in today's world and to create narratives that foster understanding, compassion, and a more equitable and sustainable existence for all.
