When Did You Last Encounter A Myth? Maybe Watching A Movie, Touring A Museum Or Browsing The Scifi Section Of Your Local Bookstore? To Contemporary Men And Women, Myths Seem Mere Relics Of A Premodern Eralegendary Stories Of Capricious Gods, Heroic Deeds And Lost Cities. The Physical And Social Anxieties That Gave Rise To Myths Have Been Dealt With More Productively In Our Century By Science, Government And Art. Right? Not At All, Says Philip Sampson. In 6 Modern Myths He Shows That All Societies, Even Sophisticated And Skeptical Societies Like Ours, Nurture Myths That Distort Both Science And History To Further Cultural Goals. Such Myths Are Important Guides To A Society'S Understanding Of Itself. How Often Have You Heard The Story, For Example, Of Plucky Galileo, Armed Merely With A Telescope And Reason, Doing Battle With A Superstitious Church Only To Be Condemned As A Heretic And Harshly Imprisoned? Even Though Most Of The Facts Commonly Assumed To Be True About This Story Are Just Not So, The Romanticized Myth Of Galileo Boldly Marches Forward. Sampson Dispels This Myth And Five Othersthat The Rise Of Christianity Led To Ecological Crisis, That Missionaries Have Oppressed Native Peoples, That Darwin'S Evolutionary Ideas Were Embraced By Scientists But Vilified By Religious Leaders, That The Church Was Responsible For Persecution Of Witches, And That Christianity Teaches The Repression Of Bodily Pleasuresall Woven Nearly Inextricably Into The Fabric Of Christianity And Western Civilization. To Tease Apart Historical Fact From Cultural Fiction Sampson Tells Different Stories, Rich In Historical Detail, Fascinating Characters And Surprising Twists. 6 Modern Myths Offers You A Historical Tapestry That Unsettles Conventional Wisdom And Provides An Enlightening Look At The Complexities Of Truth.
