A propos de cet article

[4], 177, [7] pages. References. Ink notes on front cover. Name of previous owner (a therapist) on first page. Tick mark inside front cover. No other ink notes observed. Founded in 1984, the Cultic Studies Journal is a semi-annual, peer reviewed, multidisciplinary journal that seeks to advance the understanding of cultic processes and their relation to society, including social and cultural implications as well as effects on individuals and families.
