From 1990 to 1995 Dr. Rick Strassman conducted U.S. Government-approved and funded clinical research at the University of New Mexico in which he injected 60 volunteers with DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known. His detailed account of those sessions is an extraordinarily riveting inquiry into the nature of the human mind and the therapeutic potential of psychedelics. DMT, a plant-derived chemical found in the psychedelic Amazon brew, ayahuasca, is also manufactured by the human brain. In Strassman's volunteers, it consistently produced near-death and mystical experiences.

Dr. S shared the good, the bad and the ugly. This guide through the detailed study was fascinating and I was on a roller-coaster of emotions the entire time. I can't say that I have come to any actionable conclusions other than to continue my education about psyodelics in general. This book was the first of many and I'm happy I started with clinical trial studies. Thank you for being brave enough to take the first step Dr. S!
