This collection of Goddesses depicts many of the forms in which the female deity has been worshipped around the world since ancient times. Here we meet heroines, queens, witches, queens, proud princesses, courageous daughters and cranky crones.

Nancy Blair recounts the mythology, historical/herstorical and graphical associations, and spiritual practices connected with each deity, then includes an inspiring affirmation. This pantheon of familiar and obscure Goddesses is truly a celebration of female wholeness and holiness.
