About this listen

The definitive guide to psychedelics, science and our health by a world-renowned, leading authority, Professor David Nutt.

We are on the cusp of a major revolution in psychiatric medicine and neuroscience. After fifty years of prohibition, criminalisation and fear, science is finally showing us that psychedelics are not dangerous or harmful. Instead, when used according to tested, safe and ethical guidelines, they are our most powerful newest treatment of mental health conditions, from depression, PTSD, and OCD to disordered eating and even addiction and chronic pain.

Professor David Nutt, one of the world's leading Neuropsychopharmacologists, has spent 15 years researching this field and it is his most significant body of work to date. In 2018, he co-founded the first academic psychedelic research centre - underpinned by his mission to provide evidence-based information for people everywhere. It revived interest in the understanding and use of this drug in its many forms, including MDMA, ayahuasca, magic mushrooms, LSD and ketamine. The results of this have been nothing short of ground-breaking for the future categorisation of drugs, but also for what we now know about brain mechanisms and our consciousness.

At a time where there is an enormous amount of noise around the benefits of psychedelics, this book contains the knowledge you need to know about a drug that is about to go mainstream, free from the hot air, direct from the expert.

This book takes the scientific evidence surrounding psychedelics and presents it in a way that’s easy to understand and enjoyable to read (or listen to). The biggest lesson to take from this book is the 60 year hole in science research because of ill-advised politics.

Informative but very little I did not know. This is such a fast moving field that new info about psychedelics is coming online every day.

One quibble and that is the chapters do not match up with the printed ones. The audio book producers need to rectify this as it is very confusing when trying to nav the book re listen etc.

Another outstanding book from this author. The book walks through the medical use of psychedelic pharmaceuticals, the history of unjustified prohibition and the current state of research. In the years to come, some of the material will become out of date. There is a little repetition from his book, “Cannabis, seeing through the smoke”, which is forgivable given the magnitude of the author’s experiences. The narrator is the Author which results in correct pronunciation and he’s a gifted orator. The only contradicting material is Grade 5 evidence (expert opinion), which is substantially less convincing than even the weaker open label studies reported in this.

Dr Nutt's vast knowledge of this subject dismisses many urban legends about psychedelic drugs. He reads his book very well it was worth the time to listen to the book.
