Labyrinths have fascinated and enthralled mankind from the beginning of time. This illustrated volume examines the phenomena of mazes and labyrinths, looking at their historical, cultural and spiritual significance, and at how we can use these ancient devices to enrich our modern lives. "The Magic of Labyrinths" is a journey, woven around four themes of voyage, trial, initiation and resurrection. It examines the importance of ritual and ceremony, the hero's quest and dealing with the monsters within.
