2.0 out of 5 stars Very very silly....., 15 Aug 2006
By JeffreyP "JeffreyP" (Enfield, England) - See all my reviews
Speaking from an English point of view, this lightweight, coffee table style book, which is packed full of silly looking middle aged American hippies, called 'Oak' and 'Batwing Starfish' with comedy beards and tattoos, is good for a laugh if nothing else. There are lots of photos of droopy breasts accompanied by interviews with political activists, eco warriors, femanists/anarchists, every other kind of 'ist' you care to mention, but as for any in depth analysis of paganism....forget it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interviews with Pagans from the US and the British Isles, 27 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Modern Pagans consists of a large number of interviews with Pagans, mostly Pagans who are celebrities in their communities. In a way it is a follow-up to Drawing Down the Moon by Margot Adler in that it attemtps to chart where the Pagan movement is right now (2001). The first interview is with Starhawk. It's long and goes into some detail but some times the interviewer is talking more than Starhawk. Considering that most readers are going to be more interested in Starhawk's views than in the interviewer's, that's a problem and it's also the reason why the book doesn't get five stars. The interviewer comes across as gushing in places throughout the book. But this is a minor quibble compared to the important sociological and anthropological work that is presented. What struck me on reading it was how seminal Drawing Down the Moon was, many of the interviewees mention it as a source of inspiration, encouragement and validation that helped them continue on their Pagan paths. In comparison with DDtM it's also interesting how much more open the Pagan community now is about sexuality. Among the other fascinating people interviewed are Margot Adler, Patricia Monaghan, Diana Paxson, Isaac Bonewits and various members of the Ravenwood Clan including Oberon and Morning Glory. I'd recommend that you buy this book for the diverse views of Paganism and the validation it offers Pagans of all stripes.
