Using fascinating ancient illustrations, Thomas Inman gently nudges his readers to the possibility of a wider meaning for many of their “religious” symbols well-written, rational and logical book. First published in 1869, the author of this book, an English doctor and mythologist, demonstrates to his largely Christian audience the links between their common religious symbols and those of the ancient civilizations of India, Babylonia, Greece, Rome, Assyria and Egypt.
In doing so, he introduces them to ideas that have permeated religious thought for thousands of years.
