Praise for this book

Wonderful, fascinating...Harner really knows what he's talking about." -- Carlos Castaneda

"An intimate and practical guide to the art of shamanic healing and the technology of the sacred. Michael Harner is not just an anthropologist who has studied shamanism; he is an authentic white shaman." -- Stanislav Grof, author of The Adventure of Self-Discovery

"Harner has impeccable credentials, both as an academic and as a practicing shaman. Without doubt (since the death of Mircea Eliade) the world's leading authority on shamanism." -- Nevill Drury, author of The Elements of Shamanism

What Yogananda did for Hinduism and D.T. Suzuki did for Zen, Michael harner has done for shamanism. -- Roger Walsh and Charles S. Grob, authors of Higher Wisdom
