Reviews

"The book is clearly written for the general reader and includes many descriptions of trance experiences. It may serve as a good introduction to the nature and appeal of the shamanic revival in modern Western cultures."
Theological Book Review
"This is a spellbinding and exceptionally readable book by an extraordinary woman."
Yoga Journal
"A case study in experiential anthropology that offers a unique mix of autobiography, mythology, experiential research, and archaeological data to support a challenging thesis-that certain body postures may help induce specific trance states."
