Book Review: The Power of Myth


by Joseph Campbell, with Bill Moyers


In The Power of Myth we experience the meeting of two great minds as Bill Moyers speaks with Joseph Campbell about the ancient stories and how they inform our world today. Listen in on this conversation as Campbell invites us to find our own mythology, the stories that speak to us, and helps us to discover the deeper meaning of our human journeys. Through this conversation, I came to a clearer understanding of Campbell's statement, ‘Follow your bliss.’  Spoken from a deeper perspective than just doing what we love, Joseph Campbell not only addresses our great desire to be, as he says, ‘more fully alive’, but he also  leads us into that experience.

Review by Rev. Ruth Barnharta staff minister at Center for Spiritual Living, Santa Rosa.

The Power of Myth is available from Stepping Stones Books and Gifts.
