Spirit possession is a phenomenon that often elicits a response of
fear, particular in those who are ignorant of its meaning and role
within its particular religious and cultural traditions. Possession
by divine beings (such as spirits or gods) is, however, a key
practice in religions worldwide. It is therefore important to gain
an understanding of this practice in its cultural context before
trying to develop a wider theory about it.
This fascinating book contains several case studies that present
new interpretations of spirit possession worldwide. The authors
show the diversity of possible interpretations and methodological
approaches that provide a new insight into the understanding of
possession and trance.
