About this title

Synopsis

The author of Halfway Up the Mountain shares her experiences with Hindu gurus, shamans, and witches to outline the rules for setting up a student-teacher relationship in the West.

About the Author

Caplan is a trained cultural anthrolopologist and therapist. She is a student of the Western Baul (Hindu-based tradition) but is widely versed in other forms of spirituality. Her books have been published by a small press in the US to date; Hohm Press. Her latest book, Halfway Up the Mountain, has been extremely influential and fostered widespread debate. US sales figures are modest because Hohm Press is not a major publisher. Her work has only been distributed in the UK. She is based in California.
