“A sweeping overview of the history and state-of-the-art of the scientific search for ethnopharmacological agents used as entheogens, capturing the initiation of the field in the psychedelic 60s’ —and now, 50 years later. From the history of origins of the field to the contemporary cutting-edge concerns of novel treatments for addictions, the 2 volumes of Ethnopharmacologic Search for Psychoactive Drugs lay out a panoramic view of a field that has exploded over the last half century.”
