This beautifully illustrated volume brings to life the world of signs and symbols. Carefully examining some of the most important symbols in history from across the world, it explains the mysteries, the power and evolution of this classic form of communication. Whether it is the ankh which first emerged in ancient Egypt and later played a major role in the occult world, the yin-yang symbol that lies at the heart of Taoism or the all-seeing eye of the Freemasons, these symbols shed light on the cultures that created them. Ranging across the globe and spanning millennia, Symbols provides a fascinating overview of the secret language of signs.

With clear depictions of each symbol discussed and examples of their use in the real world, this book is an essential guide for anyone interested in learning more about the world of symbols.
