Tobacco and Shamanism in South America

“”This book is a comprehensive ethnographic survey of the uses of tobacco in nearly three hundred Indian societies in South America. . . . This meticulously written book . . . is an awesome piece of scholarship which should be of interest not only to Wilbert’s fellow anthropologists but also to scholars in medicine, pharmacology, and history, especially ethnohistory.””-Virgil J. Vogel, Ethnohistory
