The Progress Of Mythic Science

The Progress of Mythic Science is a book written by Lewis Spence that explores the evolution of mythology and its relation to science. The book is divided into two parts: the first part discusses the history of mythic science, while the second part focuses on its contemporary relevance.In the first part, Spence traces the origins of mythic science from ancient civilizations such as Egypt and Greece, through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and into the modern era. He explores the ways in which mythology has been used to explain natural phenomena and how this has influenced the development of science.The second part of the book looks at the contemporary relevance of mythic science. Spence argues that while science has made great strides in understanding the natural world, it has also created new myths and beliefs that can be just as powerful as traditional myths. He examines the ways in which science has been used to create new myths and how these myths can be used to shape our understanding of the world around us.Throughout the book, Spence draws on a wide range of sources, including mythology, literature, and science. He provides numerous examples to illustrate his points and engages in a thoughtful and insightful discussion of the relationship between myth and science.Overall, The Progress of Mythic Science is a fascinating exploration of the history and contemporary relevance of mythology and science.
