University of Chicago Press (2005).. Owners signature ffep. soft crease to rear wrap hence VG condition. an attractive copy.. 396pp large format paperback. 0.6kg. Author lived in Soweto for a total of 36 months. Examines how people in Soweto and elsewhere manage their fears of 'evil forces' such as witchcraft, and the dynamics of insecurity at the turn of the 20thC.
