And The Book of Gods and Goddesses explains them all. This compact yet comprehensive compendium explores the pantheons of the world's polytheistic religions, including the oft-ignored Asian, African and Caribbean, and Native American systems. Concise explanations include the origins of each deity, the scope of the deity's power and influence, and the deity's relationship to other gods and goddess in the pantheon. This is an essential tool for any study of world mythology no matter the grade or "ability" level.
