Spirit Talkers: North American Indian Medicine Powers Spirit Talkers: North American Indian Medicine Powers A New Book by William S. Lyon, Ph.D. Books by Wm. S. Lyon Black Elk: Sacred Ways of a Lakota Encyclopedia of Native American Healing Encyclopedia of Native American Shamanism Since the beginnings of American anthropology in the 19th century, field ethnographers and ethnologists have remained silent with regards to American Indian medicine powers. To date, there has not been one book written by a professional anthropologist that addresses this subject. That is about to change. William S. Lyon received his Ph.D. in anthropology in 1970. He has spent the last three decades doing field research with many different American Indian medicine men, with an emphasis on the Lakota culture. In his upcoming book, to be published in 2004, he ignores the long-standing academic pressures to view medicine powers as simply the superstitious beliefs of primitive people. Not only has he personally witnessed such powers and come to believe in their efficacy, he provides the long-missing ingredient to our acceptance of themnamely, an explanation of how they work. Armed with an undergraduate degree in mathematics and an ability to understand the findings of modern physics, Lyon gleans from the latest findings in quantum mechanics the basic rules that shamans follow to become successful at what they do. In addition, he includes many historical accounts of their proven abilities that support his findings that real shamans can do what they say they can do. For the first time ever you will read of the great extent and variation in the medicine powers that were used by the American Indians to achieve success in their daily activities. Virtually no aspect of their lives went untouched by the use of such powers, be it for warfare, hunting, crop growing, material success or healing. In fact, the acquisition of "good luck" in any venture of life was a primary concern to them, and for this reason they readily resorted to the use of medicine powers. This book will not only forever alter your perception of American Indians, it will also alter your concept of the potential of any human being. It is a long overdue tribute to traditional Native medicine people that is designed to unlock them from our past prejudices. Chapter 1 - The Heart of the Matter Chapter 2 - Dealing with Mystery Chapter 3 - The Work of the Devil This site is designed to give you a preview of what is to come. Each month, up until its publication, the author will add an excerpt online from another chapter for your reading enjoyment. If you are interested in shamanism or American Indians in general, please stayed tuned.
