Summary: A Collection of Good Essays
Comment: This book contains a collection of essays concerning withcrafts effect on things ranging from gender issuses to the cocoa trade. If you are a beginner looking for a basic background this is not the book for you. However, if you want to learn the specifics of isolated rituals or experiences that serve as microcosms for witchcraft in general than this is a great work for you. Many of the rituals are described in detail including some secret initiation rituals. All in all the work is fascinating and a good read for anyone interested in witchcraft or postcolonial Africa.
