"This is one of my all-time favorite books about the goddesses of the Ancient Near East. Frymer-Kensky, a Jew and a scholar of Ancient Near Eastern history and literature, is able to avoid both the wishful thinking of many goddess-worshippers and the patriarchal biases of earlier male scholars, to create a compelling look at the actual role of the goddesses of ancient Sumer and the transformations recorded by the Hebrew Bible.
Her scholarship is easily accessible to lay readers, and she has a great deal of respect for her ancient sources, even though they lie outside her own faith tradition."
