God of Justice offers not only a unique ethnographic case study of healing rituals among Dalits in India's Central Himalayas, but an excellent example of an anthropologist's lived multi-positionality and reflexivity while carrying out fieldwork.
It provides the reader a rare glimpse into what it is.
Sax's resonance with the embodied experiences of participants is key to his appreciation ofhow ritual works.
