"The contributors to Intersecting Journeys focus on a diverse mix of pilgrim-tourists, producing a varied and nuanced image of what tourists want. Each small, gem-like chapter explores travel and shrine in a different ethnographic context, from the Spanish pilgrimage center of Santiago de Compostela to the temples of Kyoto; from British missionaries in New Guinea to Star Trek conventions." --Anthropology News"A very welcome addition . . . to a field which is expanding far beyond the limits of the anthropology of religion."--John Eade, Sociology and Anthropology, Roehampton University, London, UK
