Über diesen Titel

“Pollan keeps you turning the pages . . . cleareyed and assured.” —New York Times

A #1 New York Times Bestseller, New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018, and
New York Times Notable Book

A brilliant and brave investigation 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 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 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently 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 also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.

This book speaks exactly about the things I experienced myself. Especially this never before experienced state of consciousness and the newly gained understanding of how we are all connected and that nature is our friend, our provider, and should be treated as such. There’s a reason why some call it Mother Naturem that I only started to understand after using psychedelics. This book made me grin and smile and laugh as I learned about all these experiences of M Pollan and the people he mentioned. I also found it extremely interesting to learn that some think that psychedelics should be used at least once by every healthy person, too, to understand what this world we live in really is for us and to get a slightly better idea about what the meaning and purpose of life are.

Best information I have gotten hold of about psychedelics

I had rarely heard the word 'psychedelics' before encountering this audio book, recommended by Yuval Noah Harari in The Guardian Review. Michael Pollan has done a compelling research on a topic that has had little importance or interest in my life so far and a negative touch to it. This book reveals a great varieties in which to meet and undertand psychedelics, casting light on different ways of perceiving their impact on our society - both historically and with an attempt to look at their future, while also being a very personal encounter. I highy enjoyed listenig to the author reading his book and it sparked of some quite interesting discussions with myself so far.

really well written / spoken book. It gives a good picture of different psychadelic drugs and how they work / affect you. It also gives a good cans concise historical account of how they became known and used by humans.

Overall a really good book and definitely worthy of its title.

Loved it, some chapters sounded repetitive. A new insight into the most complex phenomena of mankind: consciousness.

The human brain studies have a long way to go.
