Capable of bringing human beings in closer touch with the spirit worlds, hallucinogenic plants have long been venerated as aids to mental health and as the sacred connection to the mystical. The authors of this definitive book examine the cross-cultural ceremonial and ritual use of many hallucinogenic substances. Profusely illustrated, this book contains an extensively researched plant lexicon, providing common and botanical names, history, ethnography, preparation, chemical components, usage in healing, and effects for 91 hallucinogenic plants. 650 0 $a Hallucinogenic plants. 650 0 $a Hallucinogenic plants $x Utilization. 650 0 $a Ethnobotany. 650 12 $a Hallucinogens. 650 22 $a Ethnopharmacology. 650 22 $a Plants, Medicinal. 650 22 $a Shamanism. 650 7 $a Plantas medicinais (uso) $2 larpcal 650 7 $a EtnobotaÌnica. $2 larpcal 700 1 $a Hofmann, Albert, $d 1906-2008. 700 1 $a RaÌtsch, Christian, $d 1957- 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0644/2001004425-b.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0644/2001004425-d.html 856 41 $3 Table of contents only $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0644/2001004425-t.html 941 $a 1 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20100503135718.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B6CE9C7E2B0911DE8AF32708A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b LXYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
