Goodman is to be commended for a stimulating and wide-reaching treatment of a compelling and much-debated subject." -- Journal of Folklore Research Rich in detail derived from the author's fieldwork and the anthropological literature, this work paints a picture of possession as one of the usually positive and most widespread of human religious experiences.
