From the flap:"Included are some of Campbells first groundbreaking essays: Bios and Mythos and Primitive Man as Metaphysician, both of which examine the biological basis and necessity for story and mythology, and establish mythology as a basic function or fact of nature. Campbells essay Mythogenesis turns from the natural and biological to the cultural and historical the rise, flowering, and decline of a particular myth, a single American Indian legend. Campbell explores how the myth was born, as well as the personal experiences of the visionary medicine man through whose memory the myth was preserved."

Sinopsis
In The Flight of the Wild Gander, mythologist Joseph Campbell collected a number of his most thought-provoking early essays and forwards into a single volume. Essays include "Bios and Mythos" (on the psycho-biological sources of mythic forms and symbols), "Mythogenesis" (on the rise and fall of a single Native American legend) and "The Symbol without Meaning" (about the secularization of myths in the modern age).
