Description
This is a different kind of book about psychedelics.Rather than describing psychedelic experiences, it presents four future-oriented ideas 'coming over the psychedelic horizon', which illustrate the potential benefits of psychedelics for humanity:* Stanislav Grof's view of our minds as a way to understand works of art (looking at Disney's Snow White).* The evidence that psychedelic-occasioned mystical experiences can boost our immune systems.* Psychedelics as a way of adding new cognitive programmes to our thinking skills.* Applying the ideas from Part 3 to learning.
