'The book is handsomely produced. The images, layout, type of paper, and general presentation are of high quality. Mazurek writes beautifully and clearly … She analyzes the evidence judiciously and her engagement with the vast bibliography of Isis is thorough, without bogging the reader down with unnecessary detail. Most importantly, this book provides a powerful case for the value of its methodology.' Vassiliki, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 'There is a lot to like in this very nicely put-together publication. Mazurek, an assistant professor of classical studies at Indiana University Bloomington, offers a fresh and appealing discussion on how the Egyptian deities - primarily, but not exclusively, Isis - played an important role in forging a new, globalized Greek identity within the Roman Empire.'
