Itzhak Beery's, andlt;Iandgt;The Gift of Shamanismandlt;/Iandgt; was that rare thing in my experience, a book that hooked me from the start and kept me glued throughout, taught me much that I did not know, and inspired me to not only want a private session with Itzhak, but also to learn more about my own shamanic gifts."
