Some twenty years ago, anthropologist, Carlos Castaneda, electrified millions of readers by describing his initiation - under the Yaqui Indian brujo, Don Juan - into an alternate reality. Now Taisha Abelar, who was taught by the female members of Don Juan's group, recounts her own "crossing" in this arresting book. While travelling in Mexico, Abelar became involved with a group of sorcerers and began a rigorous physical and mental training process designed to enable her to breach the limits of ordinary perception.
