This profusely illustrated encyclopedia for general readers and students in high school and up offers a total of 76 articles covering the most well-known deities of ancient Greece and Rome. On every page there are color photos of temple sites, sculptures, and paintings, representing centuries of artistic interpretations of the gods and goddesses and their mythologies. Entries about 4-6 pages long review the significance of the deity, describe forms of worship, and give notes on names of deities and planets. As with other reference works from the publisher, each entry begins with a brief summary in large bold type under the heading for easy reference. Each article also includes a bibliography and cross references to related articles. The book includes a pronunciation guide and a guide to the major pantheons, plus a list of resources for further study. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
