Dr David Luke - The Science of Psychedelics
The traditional use of psychoactive plants and fungi for spiritual and shamanic rituals has occurred for thousands of years, whereas the Western scientific research of these substances has only been explored in the last 100 years, and prohibition stalled the last 50 years of this.
Now that scientific research is resuming, what do psychedelics tell us about the weirder side of human consciousness, and what can be learned from the traditional shamanic practices with these substances?
Dr. Luke is one of Europe's leading experts in this field, having co-authored four books on the subject and co-founded the International Conference on Psychedelic Consciousness, Breaking Convention.
