Ayahuasca: Between Cognition and Culture

Publicacions URV eBooks January 1, 2020 Ismael Eduardo Apud Peláez 11 citations

Over a decade of ethnographic fieldwork in Latin America and Catalonia reveals the diversity of ayahuasca spiritual practices and beliefs. The author integrates medical anthropology, cognitive science of religion, history of science, and religious studies to analyze these varied traditions. The work draws on Apud's background as a psychologist and anthropologist, offering a multidisciplinary perspective on how ayahuasca is understood and used across different cultural contexts.
