Synopsis

If, as anthropologists have long maintained, religion is tightly bound up with a theory of the world and a way of constructing reality, how can a person suddenly choose a new religion? Anthropologists, and some scholars of religion, offer case studies looking at the intimate, small-scale dynamics of conversion, for which they find the ethnographic perspective to be uniquely suited.
