Publisher's Summary

What Is Shamanism? within the series The Shamanic Quest is an opening book for understanding what shamanism is and what role it plays today in Western society and culture.

The book proceeds empirically by clearly demonstrating in which ways shamanism is different from:

  • Animism
  • Paganism
  • Humanism
  • Parapsychology
  • Theosophy
  • Daoism
  • Zen

The purpose of the book is to show that shamanism really is a science, which becomes clear after comparing it with what seems to be similar movements in society. The book prepares a more thorough study of shamanism as a science, which is entitled The Shamanic Method and part of the same series.
