Review

"If you only buy one book about psychedelics, make it this one. Sean writes with clarity and humility, a truly balanced and trustworthy voice." --Rosalind Watts, PhD, clinical psychologist, founder of ACER Integration, and developer of the ACE model and the Watts Connectedness Scale for measuring outcomes of psychedelic therapy "If you'd like to understand the full landscape of the psychedelic revival--the good, the not so good, the absurd, and the wonderful--you could not find a better guide and a better guidebook. Separating the myths and the mistakes from the miracles is no easy job. Fortunately, Lawlor is a seasoned astronaut, a fine investigative journalist, and a wonderful storyteller. I don't know a better guide through yesterday's history and today's labyrinth." --James Fadiman, PhD, author of The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide and (with Jordan Gruber) All About Microdosing "An exceptionally well-written and comprehensive description of the rich history and great potential of psychedelic medicines in psychotherapy. Bursting with vivid quotes, fascinating anecdotes, and engaging references to popular culture, this is a must-read resource for professionals or laypersons seeking to use psychedelic catalysts in their own or their clients' healing journeys. This inspired, compassionate, and grounded book is sure to be an invaluable contribution to the psychedelic renaissance." --Stanislav Grof, MD, PhD, author of The Way of the Psychonaut and LSD Psychotherapy and cofounder of the Grof(R) Legacy Training, and Renn Butler, PhD, author of Pathways to Wholeness and director of Grof Studies Graduate Programs "Prepare to embark on a fascinating journey that transcends conventional boundaries. Psychedelic Revival offers a groundbreaking exploration into the transformative power of psychedelics and their potential to usher in a new era of healing and the collective evolution of consciousness. Sean Lawlor encourages us to consider the broader implications of their integration into Western culture, acknowledging the benefits, the drawbacks, and the need for responsible and ethical use and for drug policy reform. Whether you are a seasoned enthusiast, a curious skeptic, or someone seeking a deeper understanding of the psychedelic experience, this book is a must-read." --Rick Doblin, PhD, founder (in 1986) and president of MAPS
