"Because the myths of Mesoamerica receive only cursory treatment in omnibus mythology sources . . . this handbook, the product of an uncommon mother-and-son scholarly collaboration, will enrich reference collections in public and academic libraries." --Booklist
"A user-friendly reference on a complex subject, the Handbook is recommended for all secondary, public, and academic libraries." --Library Journal "[A] fascinating introduction to Mesoamerican mythology." --American Reference Books Annual "Focusing more on broad themes than subtle nuances, this handbook is recommended for all academic libraries." --Choice
