Traditional Healers Of Central Australia Ngangkari gathers the first-hand stories of the Ngaanyatjarara people's ngangkari, traditional healers whose plant-based medicine and spirit work has sustained the Western Desert for millennia. Illustrated throughout, this 2013 Magabala paperback profiles living practitioners and their methods, blending cultural history with accessible popular medicine and alternative health insights.
The 272-page volume explores bush remedies, healing songs, and the mental-health aspects of Anangu care, making it a key resource for readers interested in Australian natural medicine, botany, and Indigenous culture. Its clean, tight binding and crisp, unmarked pages suit collectors of antiquarian Australiana as well as students of spirituality and life sciences.
Light cover fading and a small edge mark are the only signs of its previous life in a smoke-free home; otherwise the book is free of writing, dog-ears, or tears. A gently used copy ready for anyone curious about Central Australia's enduring wellness traditions.
