Magic and Witchcraft

- Reviews -

' In our current culture, merely sharing facts about the tangled knots of narrative behind modern witchery can summon irrational and disproportionate anger, meaning Ruth Clydesdale has taken the brave path in writing this book. The history of witchcraft and magic is haunted by absences, but unlike many other authors, Ruth has refused this as an excuse to make lazy projections. Instead she has delivered a cogent, straight-talking and nuanced work to aid anyone who wants a solid understanding of the origins and evolution of witchcraft. Written with passion and integrity it provides an admirably accessible map to a complex, but essential human territory. ' -- David Southwell, author and curator of @HooklandGuide
