Synopsis
The current return to spiritual values has spawned a surge of interest in the ancient goddess-based religions as a remedy to a long tradition of misogyny in the Western religions. In a provocative work of biblical scholarship on gender and sexuality, the author shows that the ideal of monotheism may offer far more to us today than a return to the gender-based worldview of the goddess religions.
