Independent Publisher
This book remains a solid introduction to the subject for shamanism neophytes, and even those with an existing shamanic library will want to add it to their shelves-if it's not there already. Congratulations to Inner Traditions for returning this classic work to print.

Review

Stanley Krippner, Ph.D., author of Personal Mythology and Broken Images, Broken Selves

:

"Shamanism represents a body of knowledge that is pertinent to the ailments of contemporary society. Dr. Larsen guides us through this legacy with skill and ease, teaching us how the shaman's visions can expand our own awareness."



Joseph Campbell

:

"An excellent analytical and harmonizing survey of this very complex field."
