Decode the secrets and uncover the origins and meanings of over
2,000 signs and symbols, from ancient hieroglyphs to modern-day
logos. Why is a heart pierced by an arrow a classic symbol of love?
What are the ancient roots of fertility symbols? Why are scales a
symbol of justice? Delve into the meaning of each symbol and
investigate how they have been interpreted in myth, religion,
folklore, and art over time, with authoritative text from experts
in the field and striking line drawings and photography that
emphasize the visual strength and beauty of signs. Divided into six
thematic sections - the cosmos, the natural world, human life,
myths and religions, society and culture, and symbol systems - this
guide to the secret language of signs and symbols is a must-have
for those who want to understand the world around them.
