Alphabet Versus the Goddess
The Conflict Between Word & Image. By Leonard Shlain
This groundbreaking book proposes that the rise of alphabetic literacy reconfigured the
human brain and brought about profound changes in history, religion, and gender relations. Making
remarkable connections across brain function, myth, and anthropology, Dr. Shlain shows why
pre-literate cultures were principally informed by holistic, right-brain modes that venerated
the Goddess, images, and feminine values. Writing drove cultures toward linear left-brain thinking
and this shift upset the balance between men and women, initiating the decline of the feminine and
ushering in patriarchal rule. Examining the cultures of the Israelites, Greeks, Christians, and
Muslims, Shlain reinterprets ancient myths and parables in light of his theory. Provocative and
inspiring, this book is a paradigm-shattering work that will transform your view of history and
the mind.

Descent To The Goddess
A way of initiation for women by Sylvia Brinton Perera
Descent To The Goddess is a highly original and provocative book about women's freedom and the need for an
inner, female authority in a masculine-oriented society. Combining ancient texts and modern dreams,
Sylvia Perera presents a way of feminine initiation. As Inanna-Ishtar (Sumerian Goddess of Heaven and Earth)
journeys into the underworld to Ershkigal, her dark "sister". and returns. So modern women must descend from
their old role-determined behavior into the depths of their instinct and image patterns. to find anew the
Great Goddess and restore her values to modern culture. Male readers will also be interested in Descent To
The Goddess, both for its revelations of women's essential nature and for its implications in terms of their
own inner journey. Descent To The Goddess is a highly recommended addition to Goddess Worship reference
collections, metaphysical studies reading lists, and an impressive contribution to feminine psychology
reading lists.

Ariadne's Thread
A Workbook of Goddess Magic by Shekh Mountainwater
Using the figure of the ancient goddess Ariadne as a metaphor, Mountainwater unravels the mysteries of a
woman-centered spirituality. She offers gentle guidance through the cycles of a woman's life;
the phases of the moon; the yearly nature holidays; and the aspects of divination. She concludes
each chapter with suggested exercises, meditations, and reading lists. Her capably organized and
well-written book encourages women to find their own spiritual path. The reading lists lack
complete citations; still, a very good, practical book on women's spirituality and goddess worship.

Drumming the Spirit to Life
Let the Goddess Dance. By Russell Helm
Drumming the Spirit to Life is not a book — it is a complete system composed of a
book and free CD that can show you how to change your life through music.
Written by Russell Buddy Helm (who's drummed with such luminaries as Bo Diddley and
Frank Zappa), the book teaches how to play hand drums, including djembes and dumbeks.
You'll learn where to place your hands in order to get different tones from the same drum.
You'll also learn the beats and rhythms. The free CD includes over an hour of drum music,
with both simple and complex rhythms. You can play along or just listen to the music and
let it carry you away.
And that is part of the answer to the question of why you should learn to drum. Drumming
is magical. You will find that it is not your brain that plays drums, it is your heart and
soul. The "inner critic" which tells you that you can't do things is silenced, allowing you
to reach a state of bliss and enjoyment instead of stress and worry. It can prepare you for
magical ritual. The rhythms go through your body and affect you on many levels. Quite
literally, drumming can change your life.
You may think that you're not musical and could never keep a beat. That's not the point. You
don't have to play "correctly" or "perfectly." The point is to do it. The point is to revel
in the sensation.
Even if you've never clicked a pencil against a table to the rhythm of your favorite song,
you can drum. As you practice and play, you will discover new friends who will want to play
with you. People will want to dance to your rhythm (especially when you're "in the groove").
New friends, self-transformation, and healing. More bliss and less stress — sounds pretty
good, right? This book and CD can help you get there.
