The book is a collection of stories and experiences of vendors, makers and owners of amulets. Thanks to the likes of Ka Ambo, Mang Bert, and Mang Ben who helped in finding the books and booklets that contain the myths behind the symbols and inscriptions embedded in the amulets at Quiapo Church. There are five chapters in the book. The interpretation and views that are revealed in this research comes from a limited mind and can only be one of the many things that can interpret the genious of Filipinos that amulets symbolize.
