Egyptian mythology
"A renowned authority draws upon his original research to present a clear rendering of the complexities of Egyptian mythology-its gods, worship of the sun and animals, myths, concepts of the afterlife, and magical practices.The comparative view espoused by this book demonstrates that Egyptian religion was by no means as isolated in its growth as previously supposed. The development of religious doctrines, as portrayed in art as well as in literature, receives a close inspection. Magnificently illustrated, the text contains 232 figures that clarify ancient beliefs and customs." --GBP
