pp.ix 165.”Manifestations of stigmata, bodily marks resembling the wounds of the crucified Jesus, have been exceedingly rare, but as the millennium approaches, the phenomenon seems to be increasing. Harrison, a former religious correspondent for the BBC, approaches the issue with an open mind, recording the case histories of both famous stigmatists, such as the first, St. Francis of Assisi, and the lesser known and more contemporary, like the African American woman from California who, unlike most stigmatists, is a Baptist rather than a Roman Catholic. Perhaps the most interesting part of the book is the conclusion, in which Harrison takes an objective look at the phenomenon and examines events from a number of perspectives.”
