      'Die meisten Bücher über Mythologisches stellen ihren Stoff als altertümliche Geschichten vor und damit Schluss. Dieser Autor aber liefert uns den Hintergrund zu den Mythen und erklärt anschließend, wie sie sich in jeden Aspekt der Existenz eines ganz normalen Ägypters einfügten, von der Wiege bis zur Bahre - und darüber hinaus. Abbildungen, Diagramme und Zeichnungen ergeben in Verbindung mit vielen überaus packenden Zitaten aus Papyrustexten ein Bild der dynamischen Kräfte, welche die Götter darstellten, und zeigen uns, wie ihre Lebensgeschichten sich in den verschiedenen Mythen abspielten.'
