Psychedelics and the Pursuit of Consciousness
“I suspect the real breakthroughs in our understanding of consciousness are going to come from an entirely different direction. That direction, controversially, has to do with psychedelics—which, as many of the contributors to The Divine Spark argue, offer spectacular potential for the investigation of the ‘hard problem’ of consciousness.” —from the introduction by Graham Hancock
