4.0

This is a lovely, assessable introduction to Curandisimo. It is in part a biography of several Curanderos in Mexico and the Southwest.It is also memoir, which includes the author's childhood memories of folk remedies and his path to become a Curandero. Perhaps most important, it is a re-visioning of holistic, common sense health practices.
