As "a reimagining of the longing for liberty in our myths, tales, fables, and traditions" the texts in Myths of Our Humanity: Tales from Forever for Today rewrite old recognizable stories in contemporary form to illustrate, in a familiar manner, modern ideas focused on the underpinnings of liberal democracy. The book thus becomes an exploration of humanity's longing for liberty as embedded in our myths, tales, fables, and traditions.Its main body consists of thirteen "vignettes" which use an archetypal tale or tradition to illustrate various modern ideas and concepts associated to the practice of democracy and its condition of liberty and the dangers they permanently face by their major rival, autocracy. The vignettes are accompanied by illustrations form contemporary artists from around the world, as well as from major museums and galleries. The book is unique in that it uses different styles and writing formats for each vignette, including a "news report," a graphic novel, a corporate memo, introspective eye, universal eye, etc. It was also written simultaneously (not translated) in English and Spanish, presenting both in one volume.  In its pages are featured the work of extraordinary artists from around the world: Mimi Abers, Annika Connor, Marc Lafia, Itamar Martínez, José Rafael Páez, Rolando Peña, Magdalena Rangel, Nuria Román, and Andrés Salazar. The museums and galleries that authorized reproductions of art in their collections are the Museo del Prado (Madrid, Spain), Philadelphia Museum of Art (Philadelphia, USA), and the Gallerie degli Uffizi (Florence, Italy).--Como "una reimaginación del anhelo de libertad en nuestros mitos, relatos, fábulas y tradiciones", los textos de Mitos de nuestra humanidad: Relatos de siempre para hoy reescriben reconocibles historias antiguas en forma contemporánea para ilustrar, de manera familiar, ideas modernas centradas en los fundamentos de la democracia liberal.
