Overview

Read the most important book on The Iliad ever written. This is a truly ground breaking analysis of Homer's Iliad. The author, a natural scientist, embarks on a journey through this eternal masterpiece employing an arsenal of conceptual tools from Anthropology (ethnology), Ethology, Psychoanalysis, Neuroscience, and Philosophy. A terrifying and at the same time tender look into the darkness of the male soul. Seldom has Homer emerged so majestic and insightful. A landmark in Homeric scholarship. The new concept of the male totem that this book creates (""the male totem"") is destined to provide insights into the pressing problems our world faces today, for example, conflict of Islam with western ideas, Sharia, and Jihad.
