Reviews / Votes
"The book, with an excellent set of contributors, should appeal to a relatively broad audience in marketing, communications, sociology, anthropology, and psychology. Otnes and Lowrey discuss the important role of ritual in the lives of consumers and the various roles we each play."-Curtis P. Haugtvedt
Ohio State University
"The editors have developed a thorough and well-organized volume. It covers a wide variety of topics and presents several theoretical and methodological approaches to comprehending ritual."
