Witchcraft Medicine: Healing Arts, Shamanic Practices, and Forbidden Plants8 reviews
Claudia Müller-Ebeling, Christian Rätsch, ...

Inner Traditions, 2003

From an herbalist's point of view, an excellent read!
When I picked up this book, I thought it looked very good. I don't think however, I was quite prepared to be as impressed as I was with the work. It is not just a work about herbs and Witchcraft and their history, but a treasure trove of world cultural traditions and the folk healing modalities. As a professional herbalist, I was really very happy to see the amount of research and ...

Pagan Christmas: The Plants, Spirits, and Rituals at the Origins of Yuletide8 reviews
Christian Rätsch, Claudia Müller-Ebeling

Inner Traditions, 2006

Mystical and Academic Book
First, this book is written by two German anthropologists and was only recently translated into English. The research is very thorough and objective. I'm sure someone would argue with this assertation, but I don't think I'd want dispute anthropologists who study ethnobotany and art history as well. They are more qualified than I am. Second, the book is not really a how-to book as far as ...

This book reflects his expansive knowlege plus it is beautiful to look through.
  
  











  



  
The Dictionary of Sacred and Magical Plants
Christian Ratsch

Prism Press, 1992

Since time immemorial, certain plants have been hailed as magical because they have the capacity to change consciousness. Smoked, chewed, eaten, or inhaled, they allow direct experience of alternate realities which seem as real as our common one-and often a great deal more intense. Anthropologist Christian Ratsch explains the botanical classifications and pharmacology of many of these plants and examines their roles in different ...
