Lese- und Medienproben
In this profound book, Dr. Richard Louis Miller shares stories of psychedelic transformation, insight, and wisdom from his conversations with 19 scientists, doctors, therapists, and teachers, each of whom has been self-experimenting with psychedelic medicines, sub rosa, for decades. We hear from scientific psychonaut Amanda Feilding, founder of the Beckley Foundation; ethnobotanical explorer Dennis McKenna; research advocate and head of MAPS Rick Doblin; and the “Sunshine Makers”: Tim Scully, the scientist taught to make LSD by Owsley Stanley, and Michael Randall, the leader of the Brotherhood of Eternal Love. We learn about recasting “bad trips” as unfamiliar challenges from psychedelic swami Dr. Allan Ajaya, therapeutic uses of MDMA from “the love doctor” Charley Wininger, decades of insights from psychedelic professor Thomas B. Roberts, as well as several others.
Revealing the psychedelic wisdom uncovered in spite of decades of the “War on Drugs,” Dr. Miller and his contributors show how LSD and other psychedelics offer a pathway to creativity, healing, innovation, and liberation.
Richard Louis Miller, MA, PhD, has been a clinical psychologist for more than 50 years. He is host of the podcast Mind Body Health & Politics. The founder of the nationally acclaimed Cokenders Alcohol and Drug Program as well as the creator of the Health Sanctuary at Wilbur Hot Springs, he has been a faculty member at the University of Michigan and Stanford University and an advisor on the President’s Commission on Mental Health. The author of Psychedelic Medicine, he lives in Northern California.
