Сибирский шаманизм: Этнокультурный атлас

This atlas looks at shamanism in Siberia and nearby lands. It treats this old faith as a form of culture. It shows how its traits vary from group to group. It is for scholars who study culture, faith, and ethnic groups. It also helps lay readers learn about shamanism in Siberia.

Tatiana Zherebina studies ethnic groups and faith, with a focus on shamanism. She looks at a faith that still sparks debate. Much of its lore rests with each shaman. It does not rest in books or fixed rules. This makes the faith hard to study. The book looks at ways to shape states of mind. It also covers ritual madness and the rites of shamans.

The book explores how shamans lead in their culture. Their skills may span verse, song, acting, and the use of mystery. These skills help them gather their people's views and pass them on. Those views concern human life and the world.
