Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
1
Reliability tier 1: a scholarly edited volume from an academic press, gathering named contributors' studies of the Goddess movement, cited here for its own published adherent-population estimate rather than for any outside relay of it.
Notes
Used here only for its introduction's adherent-population estimate; the volume's individual chapters are ethnographic and interpretive studies not otherwise drawn on by this atlas.
