A comprehensive study that draws upon poetry and mythology, art and literature, archaeology and psychology to show how the myth of the goddess has been lost from our formal Judeo-Christian images of the divine. It explains what happened to the goddess, when, and how she was excluded from western culture, and the implications of this loss.
