Sinopsis
Trips shows, using color illustrations, the latest research, and bleeding-edge cultural analogies, how the still-mysterious hallucinogens may work in the still-mysterious brain. Written in language a general audience can understand, the book's tone is light and irreverent, yet at the same time deals with the drug culture in a serious way.
Trips offers readers a rare look at the social, cultural, historical, and scientific phenomenon of psychedelics-through the eyes of artists who've grown up with them, regulators who control them, federal scientists who approve and fund their research, and scientists who've spent careers studying them—and in the process fills a growing need for truthful information about drugs. For a generation, people have been worried about false horrors attributed to LSD-chromosome damage (LSD doesn't; coffee and aspirin do), suicide, madness, and flashbacks (no such thing). There are, however, real problems associated with hallucinogens, which until now have been unknown, ignored, or untranslated from the scientific literature. Trips separates the facts from the falsehoods and provides, through the combination of Pellerin’s text and the artwork of legendary American artist Robert Crumb, a practical, entertaining, and yet rock-solid guide.

Paperback. Condición: Good. Seefelt, Ellen; Crumb, R. Ilustrador. Illustrated by Ellen Seefelt and R. Crumb Trips shows, using color illustrations, the latest research, and bleeding-edge cultural analogies, how the still-mysterious hallucinogens may work in the still-mysterious brain. Written in language a general audience can understand, Cheryl Pellerin's Trips takes up a light and irreverent tone, yet at the same time deals with the drug culture in a serious way. Paleolithic nomads brought hallucinogen-based shamanism to the new world, but the world's first acid trip didn't occur until 1943, when Sandoz chemist Albert Hofmann discovered the psychedelic nature of LSD-25. From 1950 to 1966, hallucinogens were heading into the mainstream of psychiatric therapy to treat, for example, alcoholism and opiate addiction. The CIA tested hallucinogens on hundreds of unwitting research subjects, including soldiers and civilians. Then, in the mid- to late-sixties, recreational use of psychedelics reached critical mass. As part of the fallout, the U.S., England, Germany, and several other countries, made LSD and other hallucinogens controlled substances and banned human psychedelic research from 1966 through 1990. In 1990 New Mexico psychiatrist Rick Strassman wrote a research proposal that prompted the resuscitation of federally approved and funded hallucinogen research with human volunteers-for the first time in a generation. Trips offers readers a rare look at the social, cultural, historical, and scientific phenomenon of psychedelics-through the eyes of artists who've grown up with them, regulators who control them, federal scientists who approve and fund their research, and scientists who've spent careers studying them.
