Dieses Buch beschreibt erstmals alle Aspekte einer uralten Zauber- und Heilpflanze aus Mexiko: Salvia divinorum, auch "Wahrsagesalbei" genannt.
Bekannt wurde diese Pflanze insbesondere durch "Maria Sabina - die Botin der heiligen Pilze", die Salvia divinorum als Ersatz bei Heilritualen einsetzte, in Zeiten wo die Pilz nicht vorhanden waren. Durch Maria Sabinas Kontakt mit Gordon Wasson und Albert Hofmann in den 50er Jahren wurde Salvia divinorum weiter erforscht und der westlichen Fachwelt zugänglich gemacht.
Jeweils ausgehend von historischen Quellen werden ausführlich botanische Zusammenhänge, Kulturverhalten, Inhaltsstoffe, pharmakologische Eigenschaften als auch die frühe und rezente Anwendung der noch immer sagenumwobenen Pflanze dargestellt.
