Finally, after 25 years of incubation, Peter Gorman's book is out.
Ayahuasca in My Blood - 25 Years of Medicine Dreaming concerns his
longstanding relationship with the Amazonian visionary medicine.
Here's what people have said about it: "Unlike many writing about
ayahuasca, Peter Gorman knows this plant and these forests long and
well. Explorer, ethnobotanist, writer and raconteur - Gorman is
uniquely qualified to tell this incredible tale. A wild mixture of
adventure, horror, spirituality, tenderness, and insight, Ayahuasca
in My Blood is most highly recommended " -- Mark J. Plotkin, Ph.D,
President, Amazon Conservation Team and author of Tales of a
Shaman's Apprentice. "Long before ayahuasca tourism became a
pastime for rich gringos, Peter Gorman was knocking around Iquitos
and the Amazon. He's traveled the rivers and quaffed the brew with
the best (and the worst) of them and been way, way beyond the
chrysanthemum on many a dark jungle night. This is the intensely
personal story of an old-school jungle rat for whom ayahuasca is
not just a hobby, but a life-long quest." -- Dennis McKenna, Ph.D,
noted ethnopharmacologist, co-author of The Invisible Landscape,
co-founder of the Institute of Natural Products Research and
founding board member of the Heffter Research Institute. "I have
known and traveled with Peter for almost a decade and was present
for a number of the events he included in this book as well as many
others. Don Julio was the most powerful man I have ever had the
privilege of knowing. Further, as a trained scientist I believe the
plant medicine truly offers a doorway to a rich world that needs to
be understood in our postmodern lives. This is destined to become a
must read for anyone who is serious about understanding the world
of the shaman." -- Lynn Chilson - CEO Chilson Enterprises, Inc.
