 The late great
Dr. Timothy Leary
was engaged in a program of experiments with
LSD
and other psychedelic drugs at Harvard
University until sensational national publicity
unfairly concentrating on student interest in
drugs led to the suspension of the experiments.
Since then, Dr. Leary continued his work on
exploring the human consciousness through the
use of psychedelics until his death.
Ralph Metzner's
book,
The Psychedelic
Connection,
used Dr. Leary's research as an instruction
manual which can be used to help those undergoing
a psychedelic experience achieve
enlightenment while traveling through the
various levels of consciousness.
London researcher
Karl Jansen,
M.D., Ph.D., and Member of the
Royal College of
Psychiatrists,
is one of the world's leading experts on
ketamine.
While earning his doctorate in clinical
pharmacology at the University of Oxford, Dr.
Jansen has studied ketamine on every level: from
photographing the receptors on which ketamine
binds in the human brain to publishing papers on
his discovery of the similarities between
ketamine's psychoactive effects and the
near-death experience. His book,
Ketamine: Dreams and
Realities,
describes his research of psychedelic
experiences and near-death experiences.
