The Power of Myth by Joseph Campbell, Bill Moyers
3.0

Very informative for writers, though it's probably not recommended for those who are not familiar with mythology. I attended a class in college, so that little bit of background helped in keeping Moyer and Campbell's discussion organized and simpler to understand. It could be a little easy to get lost in their heavy analysis of society, the hero's journey, symbolism, etc. What they shared is very valuable, however, half way through I felt like the same points were being made repeatedly. Some of it was a little tedious to read questions and answers offer the same insight but phrased differently over and over again.
