{"product_id":"the-living-ancestors-zeljko-jokic-9781782388173","title":"The Living Ancestors: Shamanism, Cosmos and Cultural Change Among the Yanomami of the Upper Orinoco","description":"\u003cp\u003e This phenomenologically oriented ethnography focuses on experiential aspects of Yanomami shamanism, including shamanistic activities in the context of cultural change. The author interweaves ethnographic material with theoretical components of a holographic principle, or the idea that the \"part is equal to the whole,\" which is embedded in the nature of the Yanomami macrocosm, human dwelling, multiple-soul components, and shamans' relationships with embodied spirit-helpers. This book fills an important gap in the regional study of Yanomami people, and, on a broader scale, enriches understanding of this ancient phenomenon by focusing on the consciousness involved in shamanism through firsthand experiential involvement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Zeljko Jokic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1782388176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781782388173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2016","brand":"Zeljko Jokic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44052579320063,"sku":"9781782388173","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5f2303f3-8f7f-4144-99be-c64d96a3f200.jpg?v=1685019616","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-living-ancestors-zeljko-jokic-9781782388173","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
