DescriptionA popular new image of Witches has arisen in recent years, due largely to popular movies and television. Here, young sexy Witches use magic and Witchcraft to gain control over their lives and fight evil. Then there is the depiction in the Harry Potter books: Witchcraft is a gift that unenlightened everyday people lack. In both types of portrayals, being a Witch is akin to being a superhero. At the other end of the spectrum, wary adults assume that Witches engage in evil practices that are misguided at best and dangerous at worst. Yet, as Berger and Ezzy show in this book the reality of their practices, beliefs, values, and motivations is very different from the sensational depictions we see in popular culture.
