Description: Why, in an age of advanced biotechnology and medicine, do millions still go on pilgrimages? Robert A Scott explores this question and finds that pilgrimage continues to offer answers for many. Its benefits can range from a demonstrable improvement in health to complete recovery. Scott examines accounts of miracle cures at medieval, early modern and contemporary shrines. He inquires into the power of relics, apparitions and the transformative nature of sacred journeying and shines new light on the roles belief, hope and emotion can play in healing.
