There are many Wiccans who incorporate worship of the Norse gods and goddesses in their rituals. There are also Asatruans who attempt to follow Norse paganism EXACTLY as was done before the Christian conquests of Scandinavia. Finally, there is Odalism (which influences me). Odalism is belief in the power of the gods respective to your culture as well as protecting the earth. While odalism is popular with neo-Nazis, it in itself is not racist.

Many of Tom Holt's very funny (non fiction) books use elements of Norse Mythology, if you are doing a Degree obviously they will be no real help, but if you are just browsing there are worse pleases to look.
