When Plants Dream: Ayahuasca, Amazonian Shamanism and the Global Psychedelic Renaissance by Sophia Rokhlin, Daniel Pinchbeck
4.0
ARC via NetGalley (thought I had already done this one. Read in on July/August)
Yes, I know the book has already been published but today is the day I review the books on my NetGalley shelf. First up is this one, When Plants Dream.
It’s a good introduction to the previous writings on ayahuasca usage, some aspects of indigenous Amazonian tribes, and how Western culture is using it. If you’ve already read One River by Wade Davis or Tales of a Shaman’s Apprentice, this is more an overview of different writings, current research, and personal transformations.
