5.0 out of 5 stars Genuine Anthropology, January 27, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Encyclopedia of Native American Shamanism: Sacred Ceremonies of North America (Library Binding)
So much anthropology is caught up in the detached scientific method. People don't realize that for all its powers, that science has its limitations. Einstein realized that, but many lesser scientists in many fields don't seem to realize that. The author of this volume utilizes science -- to the extent that it works, but he strikes a balance by looking the spiritual aspects of societies from THEIR perspective.

Native American Shamanism without bias. Extensively researched, with sources noted. Entries include reference to the culture group and/or tribe.
