Drawing from ancient and modern folklore, myth, and religion, this reference work delves into the social and anthropological significance of supernatural beings such as angels, demons, dwarfs, encantados, fairies, keremets, nats and nymphs. There are over 2000 alphabetically arranged entries, which range geographically (and culturally) from the Scottish Highlands to Aboriginal Australia. Included in each entry are the entity's popular name, country of origin, region, period of use/belief, physical descriptions, and the entity's relationship to humans. The text also cross-references to other similar beings from different belief systems, countries, and periods.
