About the Book

Ahora en Netflix en un docu-serie de cuatro partes llamado "How to Change Your Mind" en donde abre el camino a la historia y los usos de los psicodélicos, incluidos el LSD, la psilocibina, la terapia MDMA y la mescalina.

Uno de los 10 mejores libros del 2018 según en New York Times.

En la lista de los mejores libros de Publishers Weekly del 2018
Una brillante y valiente investigación de Michael Pollan, autor de cinco best sellersde The New York Times, sobre la revolución médica y científica en torno a las drogas psicodélicas, y la fascinante historia de sus propias experiencias psicodélicas que le cambiaron la vida.

Cuando Michael Pollan se propuso investigar por qué el LSD y la psilocibina (el componente activo de las setas alucinógenas) proporcionan un enorme alivio a personas que padecen condiciones de difícil tratamiento como el trastorno por estrés postraumático, la depresión o la adicción, no tenía la intención de escribir lo que es sin lugar a dudas su libro más personal.

Pero al descubrir cómo estas notables sustancias mejoran la vida no solo de pacientes con problemas de salud mental sino también de personas que simplemente se enfrentan a los altibajos de la vida cotidiana, decidió explorar la cartografía de la mente tanto en primera como en tercera persona. Así comenzó una singular aventura que lo llevaría a la experimentación de la conciencia alterada, a la profunda inmersión en la neurociencia más pionera y al contacto con una prodigiosa comunidad subterránea de expertos psicodélicos. En esta ejemplar investigación periodística, Pollan revisa archivos históricos y documentos científicos para separar la verdad de los mitos, la propaganda y el pánico moral alrededor de estas drogas que se ha ido acumulando desde los años sesenta, cuando un puñado de personajes rebeldes catalizaron una poderosa corriente hacia lo que entonces era un prometedor campo de investigación.

Sugerente, polémico y deslumbrante, una mezcla única de ciencia, memoria, historia y medicina, este libro es el resultado de un viaje a una nueva, emocionante e inesperada frontera de la percepción, de nuestra comprensión de la mente, del yo y de nuestro lugar en el mundo. El verdadero objeto de este «diario de a bordo» mental no son solo las drogas psicodélicas, sino el enigma en torno a la conciencia humana y a cómo deberíamos actuar cuando buscamos encontrar sentido a nuestras vidas en un mundo que nos regala al mismo tiempo momentos de placer y de dolor.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

One of the 10 New York Times Best Books 2018.


A Publisher Weekly Best Book 2018

A brilliant and brave investigation by Michael Pollan, author of five New York Times best sellers, into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences

When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into the experience of various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the Sixties, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research.

A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs, but the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both struggle and beauty, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.
