Signs and symbols are integral to the world in which we live: from letters and words on a page to constellations in the night sky; from the figures in our dreams to the uniformed authority figures keeping order in the streets. This fascinating book examines the use of symbols across all the different ranges and aspects of human experience - from the mundane to the sacred, from the temporal to the eternal.Written by leading authorities in the fields of psychology and psychotherapy, and lavishly illustrated with beautiful fine art paintings that are rich in allegorical symbolism, and contemporary photographs showing the way signs are used today, the book contains a wealth of visual and textual information that will inform anyone interested in the timeless value of these iconic symbols.

This visual guide discusses the way signs and symbols are used by human societies as an integral and fundamental part of the way we communicate. Throughout history icons and symbols have been developed, interpreted and reproduced through art, mythology and religion; from cave paintings and aboriginal dreamtime to computer iconography and advertising. With a broad perspective, covering all continents, and spanning human history, the book brings together psychological, mythological, religious, literary, commercial, political and artistic insights to explore how these concepts can summarize or explain our common and diverse human experience.
