This is a very good introduction to the Sophianic tradition, which has transcended many faiths and cultures since the dawn of mankind. Powell does a good job of integrating different historical sources and experiences to provide us a compelling account of the role of The Divine Sophia in human history, despite the historical attempts to suppress Her influence.
