| 1. |  | The Arab Mind from Red Brick Press Customer Review:  A surprisingly comprehensive explanation, with documentation and examples, of what the author has learned about Arab thinking and culture over a lifetime of study. Clearly presented, and quite readable. However, I suggest following up with another author of comparable stature, for comparison.... |

| 2. |  | The Hebrew Goddess 3rd Enlarged Edition from Wayne State University Press Price: $23.35 Customer Review: Patai presents a vast lore of the Hebrew goddess in all her names and legends - Shekhina, Sophia, the Matronit, the Shabhat Bride. As a classical scholar in Hebrew legends, he shows us a mythology rich in female powers. What does it mean, for example, that a traditional term for the Hebrew goddess... |

| 3. |  | Messiah Texts from Wayne State University Press Price: $22.45 Customer Review: This is probably the best reference book available for anyone researching the messianic idea. It is as simple as that. |

| 4. |  | The Hebrew Myths: The Book of Genesis from Carcanet Press Ltd. Customer Review: It's a short, scholarly, yet engaging and easy to read collections of legends regarding the origins of various Biblical stories in Genesis. It's not for the fundamentalist of heart. Graves and Patai provide evidence of similar older stories from the neighboring countries and tribes. I also read, and... |

| 5. |  | The Jewish Mind from Hatherleigh Press Customer Review:  This book contrasts sharply with his Arab Mind. Reading the two together, one can see clearly Mr. Patai's bigotry and hate of Arabs. For a professor who is said to have held high positions at prestigious US universities, I found his stereotypical writings quite scandalous. However, when I balanced... |

| 9. |  | Jadid Al-Islam: The Jewish "New Muslims" of Meshhed (Jewish Folklore and Anthropology Series) from Wayne State University Press Price: $44.95 Customer Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Patai does a phenomenal job in depicting the events of the forced conversion to Islam of a small Jewish community in Mashaad, Iran. Anyone interested in anthropology or history should read this book. What makes this community of marranos unique, unlike any other... |

| 11. |  | The Jewish Alchemists from Princeton University Press Customer Review: The "Kirkus Review" description (quoted as part of the Amazon listing) seems to miss the point. Although historians of both Alchemy and Judaism have been in agreement that the Jewish role in the development and spread of alchemy was either non-existent or tiny, the alchemical texts themselves insist... |

| 15. |  | The Children of Noah from Princeton University Press Price: $25.95 Customer Review:  Patai gives a scholarly critique of Noah's ark along with a history of Jewish seafaring which has mostly been associated with the Phoenicians. Patai manages to draw numerous inferences based on small amounts of information about seafaring given in the Bible. What I found most interesting were the... |

Furthermore, the introduction set me up to expect to gain something profound out of reading it. Though most of the tales here have appeared... |
