The Antipodes of the Mind: Charting the Phenomenology of the Ayahuasca Experience
Oxford University Press (2002)
Abstract
A pioneering study of the phenomenology of the special state of mind induced by Ayahuasca, a plant-based Amazonian psychotropic brew. The author's research is based both on extensive firsthand experiences with Ayahuasca, and on interviews conducted with a large number of informants coming from different places and backgrounds.
