- A master ethnographer of the Mazatecs, this synthetic work brings together past research to describe the Mazatec concept of the world, their notions of the body, what brings one into and out of balance, death, psychotropics and their uses, and even marriage with the dead. It is part of a larger project to get Mexico's leading ethnographers to put their unpublished materials in print. The story of the angst of Mazatec road workers accidentally uncovering the home of the earth owner is a classic!
