Synopsis
Egypt and the Egyptians is an entirely up-to-date and comprehensive view of ancient Egyptian religion and culture. Unlike other books, it blends Egyptology, history, anthropology and sociology to give the reader an appreciation of the breadth of the ancient culture. The book is arranged topically, each chapter dealing with a specific aspect of the history, geology and culture. A glossary and extensive index make it easy for the reader to explore any specific aspect of Egyptian civilization., Egypt and the Egyptians is a completely up-to-date and comprehensive account of ancient Egyptian civilization, covering culture, society and social structure, temple cults, burial practices, art and architecture, history and geology. It is heavily illustrated and includes a glossary and extensive bibliography. It will interest students and general readers., The richness of more than 3000 years of Egyptian civilization comes alive in the pages of this book. From the geology of the land, the first cities, social structure, religion, mummification and burial practices, languages, temple and house architecture and art, Egypt and the Egyptians is a comprehensive treatment of ancient Egypt. The illustrations, many appearing here for the first time, and extensive quotes from ancient letters, hymns, funerary texts and law codes, enliven the text. The result is a rare combination of up-to-date Egyptological and anthropological research, giving the reader the most current and expansive examination of Egypt. It is written for students, and for the general reader interested in this ancient land and its people. The extensive bibliography, suggestions for further reading, and glossary, make this book an excellent resource for exploring any aspect of ancient Egypt., An up-to-date, comprehensive book on Egypt and the Egyptians, designed for students and general readers interested in the history of this country and its people. Chapters deal with the nature of the land and landscape, cities, towns and villages, social and religious practices and institutions, language and writing, architecture and art. Extensively illustrated throughout.

Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
