IRB #2 Into- "The Power of Myth" by Joseph Campbell

My IRB for this section is the "Power of Myth", by Joseph Campbell. This book is a conversation between Bill Moyers and Joseph Campbell about mythology, and the power and impact mythology has. Joseph Campbell is well as a mythologist, writer, and lecturer. He has graduated from Columbia University, and has studied at the University of Paris and the University of Munich. He is best known for studying comparative religion and mythology. He has many theories on the function and evolution of myth. I chose this book because I have always been very interested in mythology, and reading this book would help me get to understand more about mythology and its importance.
