Susan Lewallen (susanlewallen) | 797 comments I only read this because a non fiction book club I’ve recently joined selected it. I’m so glad I did, although it was long slog and took me many days. I’d like to check a few of the “facts” presented but I suspect Pollen has done I pretty good job. The Bibliography is extensive but I’d have appreciated more referencing of specific statements. I was astonished at the names of reputable scientists and public figures who had some role in the early studies of hallucinogens and dismayed by the role the government and scientists in suppressing information later. I predict there will be a upsurge in the use of these drugs as a result of the book and I hope it’s done carefully and in a way that allows us to learn more.
