{"product_id":"unknown-huichol-jay-courtney-fikes-9780759120266","title":"Unknown Huichol: Shamans and Immortals, Allies against Chaos","description":"The culmination of 34 years of ethnographic fieldwork and archival research, this book offers ground-breaking insights into fundamental principles of Huichol shamanism and ritual. The scope and length of Fikes's research, combined with the depth of his participation with four Huichol shamans, enable him to convey with empathy details of shamanic initiation, methods for diagnosis and treatment of illness, and motives for performing funeral, deer and peyote hunting, and maize-cultivating rituals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jay Courtney Fikes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0759120269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780759120266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Altamira Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 281\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2011","brand":"Jay Courtney Fikes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47965151297791,"sku":"9780759120266","price":113.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ee7a8026-31ed-4c51-911d-583dcc466990.jpg?v=1767278746","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unknown-huichol-jay-courtney-fikes-9780759120266","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
