Ancient Wisdom: a book for the modern soul
An anthropology professor once remarked, "Primitive man was not so primitive as modern man would like to believe." This aphorism is beautifully demonstrated by Vivianne and Chris Crowley's Ancient Wisdom. The authors guide us on a fascinating journey through the culture, religion, and wisdom of the ancient societies that give us our "modern" roots, and some of the ancient societies that still exist in our modern world. They conclude by weaving a contemporary context and relevance from the common themes. This book, like Dr. Crowley's earlier Celtic Wisdom, is a work of art as well as a work of literature. It is hard bound, printed on gloss paper and richly illustrated with beautiful and evocative imagery. Highly recommended for both the coffee table and the library.
