Opis

This is a fascinating compilation of medical, psychological and sociological papers on the spread of ayahuasca use through new religious movements in Brazil and in several European countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands), as well as the USA. Much appropriate consideration is given to its controversial legal status and the emergence of new social-legal frameworks to accommodate the healing potentials of this remarkable plant medicine. Highly recommended for serious students of this subject.
