Pressestimmen
“I personally learned a lot reading the book, which is probably the best criterion for evaluating the merits of any academic book. I learned a lot because as a natural scientist, the premises and methods used Innes were foreign to me. … For what it is, it is very good. I highly recommend it for anyone interested about learning more about the relationship between hair and religion from a historical and sociological perspective.” (Jay R. Feierman, Reviews in Science, Religion and Theology, Issue (1-2), June, 2022)
