Cave and Cosmos: Shamanic Encounters with Another Reality

By Michael Harner

Harner's long-awaited sequel, published thirty-three years after The Way of the Shaman and drawing on decades of accumulated reports from his students. Here he turns to the upper world and the experience of ascent, assembling thousands of first-hand journey accounts to argue that the heavens described by shamans show a consistency no single culture can explain. Part late-career synthesis, part evidence file, and the most personal statement he ever published.
