The World of Shamanism: New Views of an Ancient Tradition by Roger Walsh instant download
Discover the Secrets of Shamans Many of the books on shamanism are either decades old, simply repeat what is in those books, or are of questionable accuracy. Now, scholar, researcher, and professor Roger Walsh—whose writings and research have received over two-dozen national and international awards and honors—presents new views and studies on the oldest spiritual traditions in The World of Shamanism.
