Interesting examination of the power of language to create reality and influence behavior, as well as what it means to study how the symbolic and metaphorical bleed into what I would consider a tangible, literal reality. I found the most interesting part the author's presentation of a response to the question: How do people navigate a world that is both physical and a reflection of forces and powers that are not physical but conceptual? I found the book excellent material to investigate my belief that we all carry within us maps of the forces real and metaphorical that constitute the worlds that we inhabit.
