  Addresses the question of how culture and mind are related through symbols. This book explores how our experience is transformed through symbols: why we are moved by a movie or political speech, how bread and wine can taste like Christ's body and blood, and why our memories are forever changing. It focuses on the symbols in the human life-course.
