Title: Old Osiris getting older
Product review: Sorry for those who thought that this book would be useful to understand the many facets of Osiris' personality in the Egyptian mythology. Although full of interesting (but doubtfully referenced) evidences on this god, the speculating and out-dated theories of Wallis Budge hamper the reader to get a fully up-dated overview of the Osirian mythology and its consequences for the Egyptian Thought and aftermath. For newcomers, this is a dangerous text and my recommendation is not to read it; for the scholars, this is nothing else than a mere "bibliophile" item. And the price! If you really want to own it, buy the Dover's edition, it costs less than 20 bucks!! A true dissapointment.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
