In Mythanalysis, mythographer and psychologist Pierre Solie pays particular attention to two myths about the Great Mother--those pertaining to the Babylonian goddess Tiamat and the Egyptian goddess Isis. He analyzes these myths using several developmental diagrams and proposes the idea of chiasma--which means cross--to account for the crossovers where psychological changes take place. Numerous clinical cases are also presented that support the use of myth in therapy.
