Description:"This book explores the history of mental health in Senegal, and how psychological difficulties were also expressed in the terms of spiritualism, magic, witchcraft, spirit possession and ancestor worship.

This book operates as a suspension bridge between scholarship on witchcraft and magic on the one side and the history of psychiatry and psycho-analysis on the other. This book creates a new route of exchange for healing knowledge for a broad array of West African spiritual troubles, mental illness, magic, soul cannibalism, witchcraft, spirit possession, and psychosis"--We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
