Vine of the Soul is an exceptional photographic essay accompanied
by detailed descriptions of the Amazonians' use of medicinal and
other sacred plant substances. Over 160 documentary photos, some of
the most signifi cant ever taken on the subject, bring the reader
along a journey to a world in which healing with plants, ritual and
magic play an essential role in everyday life. Richard Evans
Schultes, former Director of the Botanical Museum of Harvard
University, led an extraordinary life that bridged the worlds of
academia and tribal cultures. Carrying out extensive fi eld studies
since 1939 as an ethnobotanist and conservationist, Schultes has
received acclaim from many sources, including the Cross of Boyaca-
Colombia's highest honor, the Tyler Prize for environmental
achievement, the Linnean Gold Medal, the highest prize a botanist
can receive, and many more.
