“This rich overview of goddesses’ role in Hinduism addresses goddesses as manifestations of Shakti, the elite philosophical position most often discussed in treatises on Hinduism, and from a popular perspective, as individuated beings, which is the ‘religion as lived’ perspective of the majority. . . . Highly recommended.” —Choice
“This is a lucid, wide-ranging book that offers a comprehensive overview of the major beliefs and practices associated with Hindu goddess traditions. Lynn Foulston has done a masterful job bringing together a broad range of scholarship on the Goddess and making the material accessible to a general audience.” —Tracy Pintchman, author, The Rise of Goddess in the Hindu Tradition
