Dark Matter eLiquid
Enjoy the wonderful flavor of our latest VapeSafe eLiquid - Dark Matter.
Dark Matter tastes like German chocolate cake. For those of you who have not had the fortunate to try a piece German chocolate cake recently, this is a great way to experience the flavor without getting any of the calories. German chocolate cake is a layered cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Traditionally sweet baking chocolate is used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake. The robust filling and topping is a caramel made with egg yolks and evaporated milk. Once the caramel is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred into the mixture. Finally, rich chocolate frosting is spread around the sides of the cake to hold in the filling.
Dark Matter eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of German chocolate cake. Dark Matter eLiquid delivers plumes of vapor and rich chocolatey flavor that you'll want to enjoy again and again. Try Dark Matter today!

This book gives a broad overview of many types, origins, and uses of symbols. Is worth reviewing, but will not make one an expert.

Summary: "Lots of information"
Lots of information, there of course could always be more. There are aspects to lots of the different symbols presented that could be expanded upon. For a "short" book on the subject, it does a great job of giving an overview of many many different symbols, religions, mytholgies, and histories.

Summary: "Beautiful edition"
This is a beautifully produced edition. It looks like each page has been hand crafted. It is well written and comprehensive, and more than amply illustrated. One might wish for a little more depth on each of the topics, but otherwise this is an excellent book for a beginner who is interested in the general topic.

The archival illustrations are beautiful for the most part , and while this volume does'nt contain everything , it is very rich in contente , and offers a lifetime worth of thematic approach to visual studies. Thanks for this great compilation.

Summary: "Mediocre at best"
On the positive side: The book is full of color illustrations, ranging from the banal to fairly decent reproductions of art or other visual representations; it's a nice (pocket) size if you want to read it on the go -- I don't know why anyone would, however -- but big enough to be readable in an armchair. In addition, there are several symbols that I just wasn't familiar with (e.g. Eastern religious symbols), so it is educational, to an extent
On the negative side: I could have written the captions/descriptions for most of the symbols I'm familiar with, which causes me to wonder if those symbols I'm unfamiliar with bear equally trite and pedestrian explanation. Yes, I think it's common sense that monks represent piety, or that the phoenix is a symbol of resurrection and immortality. In addition, I feel that the symbols I know a good deal about aren't given the explanations they deserve; for example, Aesclepius (Greek god of healing) isn't even mentioned in the caption under "Caduceus," which has gradually come to be a symbol of the medical profession. And the prevalent Medieval/Renaissance symbol of the "memento mori" isn't even included in the book. Lastly, there are a few typographical errors that the edition's content was prepared sloppily, in general.
Overall, this edition is not worth it. If you're looking for a specific type of symbol resource, I would look into a book geared toward that field (e.g. Occult Symbology). Otherwise, Jung has several published resources you might consider (regarding Archetypes or Alchemy symbology). Go with those instead.
