Abstract

We live in a world with incredible diversity, and the stated goal of Miracles: An Encyclopedia of People, Places, and Supernatural Events from Antiquity to the Present (MEPPSEAP) is “to approach the concept of miracle from different perspectives” (xvii). Specifically, the editor notes ethnic traditions, geographical locations, periods, writings of theologians and philosophers, and modern science as frameworks that are mined for the material included in this one volume reference resource.
