"In 'The Death and Resurrection Show' Rogan Taylor traces the evolution of western show biz from its origins in the bizarre and spectacular performances of shamans - the medicine men and women of nomadic tribes. [. . .] The author finds that every single trick and stunt, song and dance, so familiar to us on the popular stage has its taproots in the shaman's re-enactment of these strange adventures. [. . .] He concludes that show business still operates therapeutically in a way very similar to that of the shaman's ritual magic. Modern show biz, it appears, is anchored in Underworld experience - in Hell itself." - from dust-jacket blurb.
