When is a story more than just a story? When does it become a myth? When it holds a piece of truth about our history, our morality, and the cosmos. Throughout history, humankind has used stories to explain the unknown. From the cycle of the moon to the changing of the seasons, tales about supernatural beings and events have served to account for the purpose of the cosmos. But mythology isn’t entirely fiction. These stories have been passed down for generations for a reason.

Story
In layered prose and with thoughtful, accessible scholarship, Aslan narrates the history of religion as one long and remarkably cohesive attempt to understand the divine by giving it human traits and emotions. According to Aslan, this innate desire to humanize God is hardwired in our brains, making it a central feature of nearly every religious tradition. As Aslan writes, "Whether we are aware of it or not, and regardless if we are believers or not, what the vast majority of us think about when we think about God is a divine version of ourselves."

Story
Atlantis: The Antediluvian World was published in 1882 by the Minnesotan author Ignatius L. Donnelly. He argues that all known ancient civilizations were descended from this lost land which once existed in the Atlantic Ocean, opposite the Mediterranean Sea. The author claimed that the description of this island given by Plato is not fable, but veritable history.

Story
The Unlikely Peace at Cuchumaquic is both an epic story and a cry to the heart of humanity based on the author’s realization that human survival depends on keeping alive the seeds of our “original forgotten spiritual excellence.” Prechtel relates our current state of ecological crisis to the rapid disappearance of biodiversity, indigenous cultures, and shared human values. He demonstrates how real human culture is exterminated when real (not genetically modified) seeds are lost.

This Kelly Mass is smart
I am sure she's done a lot of research on the topic of African mythology, and she has done an excellent job of organizing all that information. I was intrigued. Good job.

Another cool book
This "Summaries from History" series is something I'm going to follow. I've seen a few books about the Roman Empire come by, and maybe one or two others. Definitely up my alley. The African mythology one is interesting. Thanks.

Interesting
There is lots to learn about African history and mythology. A lot of people don't really study it. This is what I was looking for. It did NOT disappoint.

Good mythology book
It's an interesting principle, the whole premise of this book. You don't typically see that in other books. And that's why it can use an individual like me to compose a few positive things about it.
