Psychedelic Medicine: New Evidence for Hallucinogenic Substances as Treatments Vol 2. edited by Michael J. Winkelman and Thomas B. Roberts

Publisher ‎Praeger; 1st edition (June 30, 2007)

“When hallucinogenic drugs are mentioned, one is more likely to think of drugs of abuse, mind-altering drugs, or drugs subject to governmental regulation than of drugs that may have a therapeutic application. For this reason, this two-volume treatise serves a useful purpose not only in providing an update on the limited number of hallucinogenic drugs that already have some therapeutic application (based on relatively limited research), but also by covering the history of these mind-altering drugs and the cultural, social, political, legal, economic, and ethical factors that have encumbered research on these compounds. The work is well organized, with chapters written by medical and legal professionals active in the field…Highly recommended. Lower-level undergraduates and above; general readers”
