The book was a decent basic introduction to the subject for beginners like me.
Unfortunately this meant that it was easy to pinpoint whether this subject is quite for me - at present it is not - and lose interest.
Perhaps the writing style just was not for me - it lacked a bit of depth, but perhaps that may be expected from a book in a "made easy" series.
I can see how if you get more engrossed into the subject itself, it can be a good read so my review is extremely subjective on this occasion and if you feel drawn to checking this book out, I would still encourage you to do so and draw your own conclusions.

Lots of good information
This book starts out with the basics and moves into some more advanced practices. All of the advanced practices are discussed, but not practiced in the book. The author clearly makes the reasons for not attempting advanced practices without first knowing the basics. The author goes into incredible details for the basics which if practiced will help any while laying a foundation to build upon for future work.

Tip toe introduction to shamanism, well structured yet somehow I wished for some more theoretical foundation to support the applications presented. Nonetheless a good starting point.
