Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. 3rd Edition. Minor reading curve to the lightly creased spine, corners a bit rubbed, little wear overall. Text is clean. 'The shaman is at once a healer, exorcist, magician and rescuer of sick souls. He can communicate directly with spiritual beings, good and bad, through his powers of clairvoyance and of travel in out-of-the-body trance to other realms of the cosmos. First identified in Siberia, the shaman is now recognised as having been present in many cultures since ancient times. This book is the first full-length study of shamanism in Japan. [The author] describes the shamanic figures surviving in Japan today, their initiatory dreams, their ascetic practices, the supernatural beings with whom they communicate, and the geography of the other world in myth and legend.' Illustrated. 382 pages. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Book. Seller Inventory # 049575
