Description
Summary:Cott recounts the Egyptian myth and then examines it via interviews with the archpriestess of the Fellowship of Isis (a worldwide organization of over 15,000 members in 60 countries); the spiritual leader of the Ammonites and her nine-year-old son who is believed to be the incarnation of Isis and Osiris' son; and two psychologists who run workshops in which patients reenact the Isis/Osiris story as a means of therapy.
