In two parts, this concise and convivial exploration explains what shamanism entails, describes who shaman are and what they do, and chronicles the various contributions of shamanism to psychology, spirituality, and medicine. It goes on to provide an introduction to the shamanistic vision through firsthand accounts of the author s own travels throughout various regions of Latin America. It also investigates the possible connections between shamanism and depth psychologythe psychoanalytic approach to therapy and research that takes the unconscious into accountwith which it shares various assumptions and techniques. What emerges is a thoroughly profound picture of a way of thought that proposes a genuine integration among human beings, nature, and the cosmos and that offers answers to crises, pain, sickness, and death."En dos partes, esta "exploracion"concisa y amena explica que es el chamanismo, quienes son y que hacen los chamanes, y describe las diversas aportaciones del chamanismo, tanto para la psicologia y la espiritualidad como para la medicina. Luego provee una introduccion a la vision chamanica a traves de relatos de primera mano de los viajes del autor mismo en diferentes regiones de America Latina.
