Description
by Morgan Maher (Foreword by), Peter Gorman (Author)
Peter Gorman's Sapo In My Soul is the story of the Western world's discovery of the powerful Matsés frog medicine known as Sapo or Kambo. Part memoir, adventure story, magical mystery tour, jungle jaunt and documentary, Sapo In My Soul is also an essential guidebook to using the medicine traditionally. With over two dozen photos as well as stories and information on sapo's sister medicine nü-nü, Sapo In My Soul is a power-packed ride into uncharted terrain. Visit sapoinmysoul.com for Table of Contens, sample chapters and bonus material. What people are saying: "Adventurous, courageous and foolish in fairly equal measures, Peter has drunk, snorted, inhaled and otherwise extensively fed deeply from the ingenious pharmacopoeia of the Amazonian shamans. In his latest tale Sapo In My Soul, he recounts his dramatic discovery of the use of sapo frog among the Peruvian Matsés. Using his well-developed eye for detail and driven by innate curiosity, Gorman shares his early days of sapo discovery, and sets the scene for the examination of sapo's novel peptides by pharmaceutical entities.
Author Biography
Award-winning investigative journalist Peter Gorman has covered stories from the streets of Bombay to the heart of Manhattan to the Mexican border and beyond. In addition to his career in journalism, Peter Gorman has spent parts of the last 30 years in the Amazon jungle in Peru, where he has been a collector of artifacts for the American Museum of Natural History in New York, herpetological specimens for the FIDIA Research Institute of the University of Rome, and medicinal plants for Shaman Pharmaceuticals. The father of three, Gorman splits his time between Joshua, Texas-where he is a staff writer for the Fort Worth Weekly, the city's alternative paper-and Peru, where he takes small groups out into the deep jungle for healing with ayahuasca and the indigenous Matsés' medicines, sapo and nü-nü. He is the author of the book Ayahuasca in My Blood-25 Years of Medicine Dreaming.
