Sinopsis

A deeply thoughtful, deeply irreverent look at the mythology of playGods and Games ties together Joseph Campbell',s approach to myth and religion with Johan Huizinga',s view of our species asáHomo ludensá&mdash, Man the Game-player &mdash, which suggests that play is a central aspect of the human spirit and human culture.A comprehensive and clear review.... loaded with quotations both pertinent and entertaining that may be eye-openers both to traditional religionists and readers who may never have thought about play in a philosophical or religious sense. &mdash,Publishers WeeklyThe breadth of scholarship and the light-handedness of the author, Professor David L. Miller, make this book a movable, digestible and an enjoyable feast. &mdash, Robert Seidenberg,áAmerican Imago
