Review of Mythic Worlds and the One You Can Believe In
[Following is a volunteer review of "Mythic Worlds and the One You Can Believe In" by Harold Toliver.]
It's ideal for the nonfiction category. Harold Toliver wrote Mystic Worlds and the One You Can Believe In to explore different myths and misconceptions and their impact on the truth. The book investigates both the positive and negative effects of myths, beliefs, traditions, and illusions on natural history throughout history. The author focuses on informing his readers about how difficult it is to find the truth in a world infested with myths and misconceptions that affect various aspects of society, such as religion, politics, economics, and human interactions.
In his book, the authors investigate popular beliefs that have fueled clashes throughout history. He has provided examples of his beliefs. Consider the Jihad (holy war), in which Muslims believe it is permissible to murder non-Muslims. According to the author's perception and thinking, deception is the implacable enemy of truth. Idols, myths, false beliefs, and persuasion are all enemies of the truth in contemporary society. According to him, the illusion is effective in today's world. The author's view of myths is unnatural, making them incompatible with the natural order of events.
The book appealed to me because it was both informative and entertaining. It taught me about a wide range of topics that I've been seeking to understand as a history major. Despite the use of difficult vocabulary, every chapter in the book had supporting evidence, which helped me understand the book entirely. The cover and title of the book piqued my interest and compelled me to read it. The book was well-referenced, and the themes were thoroughly explored, making it a relatively easy read. The reader's attention was easily drawn all the way to the last page because the prologue was thorough and fascinating.
The book had a total of 296 pages, which were divided into 12 chapters. The detailed writing style of this book did justice to its topics. This is due to the book's detailed content, which makes it easy to understand despite the use of sophisticated vocabulary. The language used was complex, and a word dictionary should have been included at the end of the book as a reference. I didn't like how the book was so densely packed with references. Given how well-written the book was, they seemed unnecessary.
I gave the book a 3 out of 4 star rating because of the things I didn't like about it. The book was difficult; it appeared to be course work for a history major. The editorial team did a good job because the book is professionally edited. I recommend this book to history professors, students, and anyone else who wants to learn more about myths and misconceptions and how they affect the truth.
