Magic and Fetishism (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798628292846)

Haddons' "Magic and Fetishism" is an intriguing and sometimes delightful treatment of the subject of simple folk magic and the use of charms and similar personal magical methods. The number of individual usages here is quite large and mostly related to Asian and African tribal practices. At times, this is even humorous in nature. It is in essence a cross-cultural analysis of tribal and regional practices and what they define as magical, in the basic sense of the often protective and always personal.It contains, as well, a full bibliography, providing an excellent spring-board into related topics and works.
