Jaguars, panthers and pumas in pre-Columbian America: the subject matter is
fascinating, but with the exception of a couple of papers whose writers display
both imagination and communication skills, Icons of Power: Feline Symbolism in
the Americas is dreadfully dull. Editor Nicholas Saunders and his anthropologist
and archaeologist writers have produced the epitome of the impenetrable academic
text鈥 a great shame. Published by Routledge, 拢35/$60, ISBN
0415153271.
