Please pass the word, tell your friends, post to appropriate lists, etc.! Here's the basic info. NT-OZ ________________________________________ MODERN PAGANS: In Investigation of Contemporary Pagan Practices Editor: V. Vale Interviews by V. Vale and John Sulak Publication Date: November 2001 8" x 9-7/8". 212 pages. Index. Glossary. Over 260 photos and illustrations Price: $19.95 Click here: http://www.vsearchmedia.com/latest/mpadv.html for more information, excerpts, pictures and a video clip. Modern Pagans is an accessible, witty book of interviews with a spectrum of forward-thinking Pagans. Approximately fifty of the most renowned voices in the global Pagan community consider topics such as: Paganism and its representation in popular culture, its historical antecedents and present manifestations, the community-building possibilities of the Internet, and other tangible and theoretical implications of the burgeoning number of Pagans. Our unprecedented access to information and scientific knowledge have rendered most mainstream religions irrelevant, patriarchal and hopelessly outdated. Contemporary Paganism, informed by a vast spiritual history, offers what some regard as a non-hierarchical religious alternative. Here is a handbook for spiritual seekers everywhere. Lavishly illustrated with over 250 photographs, and enhanced by many "Lists," this is a reference book that will be consulted repeatedly for both inspiration and information. V. Vale, editor and interviewer, has a track record of 24 years in publishing-initially with Search & Destroy, and for the past 21 years with RE/Search. His interviews and publications have garnered much attention and accolade, earning him the reputation as "the Studs Terkel of the Underground." John Sulak, interviewer, has written for Spin, S.F. Bay Guardian, and other publications. Table of contents: Introduction, Pagan Glossary, Starhawk (Reclaiming Writer, Teacher, Activist), Madrone (Reclaiming Organizer, Teacher), Diana L.
