Magic Medicine: A Trip Through the Intoxicating History and Modern-Day Use of Psychedelic Plants and Substances
"Cody Johnson beautifully balances historical knowledge with cutting-edge science to produce a thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening read which paints a holistic picture of the risks and benefits of psychedelic use in modern day medicine and culture."
--Rick Doblin, PhD, Founder and Executive Director of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS).
Magic Medicine explores the fascinating history of psychedelic substances and provides a contemporary update about their growing inclusion in modern medicine, science, and culture. Each chapter dives into the rich history of a single plant or compound and explores its therapeutic and spiritual uses in cultures near and far. Firsthand quotes allow glimmers of psychedelic light throughout. Learn all about:
- Classical psychedelics, including 2C-B, ayahuasca, LSD, and peyote
- The empathogenic psychedelics MDA and MDMA
- Dissociative psychedelics, including DXM, ketamine, and salvia
- Unique psychedelics, including cannabis, DiPT, and even fish and sea sponges
Many psychedelic plants and substances have a long history of being incorporated into various healing traditions--such as cannabis and opium in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Science is beginning to research what traditional cultures have told us for years: psychedelics have transformative healing properties.
Anyone who has ever wondered about psychedelics--from complete neophytes to veteran trippers, seekers and sages to skeptics and scientists, therapists and patients to green thumbs and armchair anthropologists--will find something in this engrossing and beautifully designed book.
