A must for Potterheads!
A wonderful collection of papers, ranging from the psychology of our favourite boy wizard, to the genetics of wizardom, to the cross-over of egyptology and hocruxes. Fantastic reading for any fan!

Packed with essays
From the characters, to the themes, to predictions for the future, this collection is packed. Every topic you can imagine, all dealing with our favorite boy wizard!

For fans and academics alike.
A wide range of materials for the scholar and fan. Something to pique the curiosity and inspire critical thinking among those who are already engaged wwith the contemporary-classic saga of HP, and those who are puzzled about fan fascination with Rowling's heroes. Thumbs up!
