Reviews

"From Akhenaten to Moses: Ancient Egypt and Religious Change is a seminal work of truly impressive scholarship. An exceptionally well written, organized, and presented study that is enhanced with the inclusion of eighteen pages of Notes and a comprehensive Index, this work is very highly recommended for academic library collections and the supplemental studies reading lists for students of Egyptian antiquity."--Reviewer's Bookwatch
