Since its release in 1949, The Hero With a Thousand Faces has influenced millions of readers by combining the insights of moden psychology with Joseph Campbells' revoutionary uderstanding of comparative mythology.

He also explores the Cosmogonic Cycle, the mythic pattern of world creation and destruction.
