Essays from the frontiers of consciousness

Andrew Weil gathers essays rooted in his travels through South America in the early 1970s, where he sought insight into altered states of consciousness and the cultural uses of drugs. The collection connects those inquiries with a broader interest in how mind and body relate, and with Weil’s stated aim of bringing medicine into closer connection with nature. Its subjects place cross-cultural encounters alongside questions about health and personal agency. This edition includes a new preface by the author.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in alternative approaches to health and medicine.

Book overview

From the great popularizer of alternative medicine, here is a collection of essays about his travels to South America in the early 1970s in search of information on altered states of consciousness, drug use in other cultures, and other matters having to do with the complementarity of mind and body. Andrew Weil's experiences during this time laid the foundation for his mission to restore the connection between medicine and nature. In The Marriage of the Sun and Moon, now updated with a new preface by the author, the esteemed Dr. Weil attempts to empower patients to take fuller charge of their destinies.
