{"product_id":"a-lewis-thomas-the-medicine-men-9780803279391","title":"The Medicine Men","description":"For the residents of the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota, mainstream medical care is often supplemented or replaced by a host of traditional practices: the Sun Dance, the yuwipi sing, the heyok7;a ceremony, herbalism, the Sioux Religion, the peyotism of the Native American Church, and other medicines, or sources of healing. Thomas H. Lewis, a psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, describes those practices as he encountered them in the late 1960s and early 1970s. During many months he studied with leading practitioners. He describes the healers2;their techniques, personal histories and qualities, the problems addressed and results obtained2;and examines past as well as present practices. The result is an engrossing account that may profoundly affect the way readers view the dynamics of therapy for mind and body.","brand":"Bison Books","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53915163165014,"sku":"9780803279391-G","price":12.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/a-lewis-thomas-the-medicine-men-9780803279391","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
