Editorial Reviews
Review
'For an Egyptologist this fine book is consistently informative, provocative and stimulating; its vision of Egypt, even without the Pharaohs in their oriental glamour, will not fail to enthrall a more general reader seeking the best academic introduction.' - Antiquity
'Its originality should make it required reading for all students of ancient Egypt.' - Times Literary Supplement
'The most provocative, thoughtful and outstanding synthesis on Ancient Egypt available in the English language.' - Choice
'This study of ancient Egypt is a healthy combination of meticulous scholarly argument and imagination. This is the first Egyptological study to find a satisfactory way of accommodating into the flow of Egyptian art history those works of art and architecture which, although clearly dated to various times throughout the dynastic period, retained the spirit of Predynastic art.' - Apollo
