Title: A good primer
Review: I loved this book, although it is not comprehesive, it serves as a good primer and offers brief information for many less commonly known deities. The author himself makes note that it was just casual note-taking that led to this booklet, not a major scholarly work he labored on.The Gods of Man covers deities from the following cultures: African, Aztec, Celtic, Chinese, Egyptian, Greek, Japanese, Mesopotamian, Norse, North American Indian, Oceanic, Roman, Santerian, Slavic, South and Central Native American Indian. Each culture has a small sampling of deities, with a brief definition of each. This book is meant more as a dictionary, NOT as large biographies of each deity. I have found info on many lesser-known deities, enough to give me an understanding of who he/she was and what he/she did.
