New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018 A New York Times Notable Book The #1 New York Times bestseller. A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research. A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.

以為是講的主觀控製注意力,結果講的是毒蘑菇曆史。一星給封麵james turrell
評分緻幻劑的前世今生。書寫得沒有作者以前寫的那些有趣,不過還是挺開眼界的。有幾點比較有意思:一個是關於死亡是需要dissolve ego纔會沒有恐懼,一個是awe這個概念。
評分《如何改變你的意識》 聽書
評分聽audio book。半睡半醒間錯過不少細節,不過記住的部分非常有幫助。重點不是藥品,而是人對自己認知狀態的自主性。
評分國內這種書估計很難齣瞭,希望這種東西能閤理的使用,讓人麵對恐懼和死亡以及抑鬱時能有所安慰,希望去荷蘭試試。日課
