Book Summary
This encyclopedic and easily comprehended work, whose range extends from the Paleolithic Age to the present-day Gaia Hypothesis, is a grand synthesis of art, mythology, literature, and psychology. "A wonderfully readable synthesis . . . packed with riveting illustrations".--Publishers Weekly. In this definitive and powerfully argued study, the authors draw upon art, mythology, poetry, literature, archaeology, and psychology to show how the myth of the Goddess has been lost from Judeo-Christian images of the divine.
