American Spirituality in an Anxious Age

The Channeling Zone

Annotation "An outstanding and innovative study on hunting, gardening, and love magic among the Aguaruna. . . . [It is] both highly useful ethnographically and an important contribution to the understanding of how a primitive culture conceptualizes its transactions with nature. The book touches on cosmology and religion as well as the ethnoecology of hunting and agriculture--with an interlude on sex." --American Ethnologist

'War of Shadows' is the haunting story of a failed uprising in the Peruvian Amazon - told largely by people who were there. Anthropologists Brown and Fernández write about an Amazonian people whose contacts with outsiders have repeatedly begun in hope and ended in tragedy.
