Spirit Talker: North American Indian Medicine Powers/ William S. Lyon.
This book is the first-ever publication to provide an in-depth overview of American Indian medicine powers. More importantly it challenges the current notion that a belief in medicine power is merely the result of primitive superstition. Utilizing a recent discovery in quantum mechanics, hailed by some physicists as "the greatest discovery in the history of science," Lyon explains how quantum mechanics principles can be used to better explain why shamans do what they do during ceremony. This results in Lyon taking the point of view that there is now more evidence to assume Indian medicine powers are real than to assume thy are not.
