As psychedelics once again move towards mainstream respectability, it's fascinating to be reminded of all they're capable of—and what our minds are capable of under their influence. This fascinating scientific but non-technical book introduces us to the history and present of psychedelic medical usage and research, from thousands of years ago to the 1960s to today, including a wide range of drugs that are deemed recreational and illegal but have long been known to have tremendous therapeutic potential in everything from PTSD to palliative care. Dr. Miller and a number of esteemed contributors also examine the political landscape and future of these substances.  (Short Discount)
