Fantastic book, it is a ready reference for many, many deities that appear in sculpture, painting, etc. Easy to use, I find myself going to it frequently. The drawings are very useful in pointing out specific aspects, mudras, etc. Especially helpful are the lists of what each diety is known as in the various countries - always a point of confusion! The photos are wonderful as well. Well done!
