In this sensitive investigation into Benin's occult world, Douglas Falen wrestles with the challenges of encountering a reality in which magic, science, and the Vodun religion converge into a single universal force. He takes seriously his Beninese interlocutors' insistence that the indigenous phenomenon of àze (“witchcraft”) is an African science.
