Maps of meaning

People of different cultures and times tell each other myths and stories. Why is it that these narratives have such a similar structure? What does it say about the human mind, morality and the world in general? < br> In his first book (1999), Jordan Peterson explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what is contained in rituals, myths and religious stories. Maps of Meaning is a work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, building a multilayered theory that makes the wisdom and meaning contained in myths accessible to the critical mind of modern man.
