Monks and Magic deals with Buddhism as it was practised in a community in rural Central Thailand. It was based upon anthropological fieldwork during the late 1960s. The scene unfolds with the religious perspective of children and young adults, who appear mainly interested in esoteric spells and magical diagrams. Full ritual knowledge is obtained by many men in their twenties when they join in the order of monks for at least one Lenten season. The later parts of the book are devoted to the worldview of older people and an analysis of some Buddhist rituals. This is the third, thoroughly revised edition.
