The papers in thie book suggest a number of new ways of consdering sacredy geography. They suggest that spatialized notions - in the context of globilization and modernization and, more recently, of economic and political crisis - can best be understood in the tension between 'tradition' and 'change'." - Ronald Lukens-Bull, Editor
