Downing celebrates the gains and achievements of women, psychologically speaking, as they have been recovered, reclaimed, and repossessed by women over the past several decades. Her title is itself a conscious appropriation, in homage to a book Esther Harding wrote fifty years ago (Woman's Mysteries) and an extension of her own much celebrated book, The Goddess: Mythological Images of the Feminine.
