The worst thing about this book is Starhawk's version of 'herstory' which she does admit, in her 20th anniversary notes in the index, that it is a modern myth and should be taken as such. I still think this leads to a lot of misconceptions among the fluffier pagans today and only serves to continue to propagate the "oldest religion" myth and all that "burning times" rubbish. Other than that this book is poetic, and an interesting and wonderful read. I wish this was one of the first books I picked up when I first first interested in paganism and would recommend it to anyone first striking out on the 'path'.
