Medical training taught me the art of breaking down the complex maze of stories, symbols and rituals into clear systems. You could say that it helped me figure out the anatomy and physiology of mythology and its relevance in a society more incisively. How is it that no society can, or does, exist without them?

医学训练教会我如何将错综复杂的故事、符号和仪式分解成清晰的体系。可以说,它帮助我更深刻地理解了神话的解剖学和生理学,以及它在社会中的相关性。没有他们,社会怎么可能存在?
