Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This volume offers a pictorial compendium of symbols and symbol systems, and shows how an understanding of the messages conveyed by symbols may enrich our lives. The author draws upon psychology, Eastern and Western spirituality, anthropology, dreams and symbols used in meditation to provide an understanding of his subject.

Dr David Fontana has also written "Dreamlife: Understanding and Using Your Dreams" and "Elements of Meditation". The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001644875
