We all know how seemingly simple, ordinary words can illuminate-or obscure-what we're thinking, how we're feeling, what we mean. In God's Dictionary, Susan Corso returns words to their roots to uncover the soul of their meanings. Drawing upon the world's sacred wisdom traditions, Corso shows readers how a deeper understanding of the words they so often take for granted can powerfully benefit their lives. Adore, imagine, gentle, obey-she plumbs the etymologies of these important, everyday words to reveal their deeper, hidden meanings. Herein lie the sacred definitions that Webster's simply cannot supply. Beautifully designed and profoundly inspiring, God's Dictionaryis a blessing for users of the English language.

Ancient Mesopotamia was a rich, varied and highly complex culture whose achievements included the invention of writing and the development of sophisticated urban society. This book offers an introductory guide to the beliefs and customs of the ancient Mesopotamians, as revealed in their art and their writings between about 3000 B.C. and the advent of the Christian era. Gods, goddesses, demons, monsters, magic, myths, religious symbolism, ritual, and the spiritual world are all discussed in alphabetical entries ranging from short accounts to extended essays. Names are given in both their Sumerian and Akkadian forms, and all entries are fully cross-referenced. A useful introduction provides historical and geographical background and describes the sources of our knowledge about the religion, mythology and magic of "the cradle of civilisation".
