Inner Traditions (1981), Edition: Original ed., 96 pages
Description
Symbolism is the intuitive means of overcoming the limitations of reason. Here Schwaller explains how true progress in human thought can be made only if we call upon the "symbolizing" faculty of intelligence, developed and refined in the temple culture of ancient Egypt and reflected in its hieroglyphs.

A very brief introduction to a very complex subject. In reality, I feel as if the book is nothing more than an introduction to a much more extensive book. The content really is not sufficient enough to justify the cost of the book.
