A new 'The Doors of Perception' for the 21st century? A visionary
journey from cynicism to shamanism by a brilliant young US writer.
Daniel Pinchbeck was an essentially sane and rational person,
living the life of a sophisticated urbanite. But one disenchanted
day he felt he'd exhausted the shallow aspirations of the
contemporary scene. So he went on a quest. And he went all the way:
to West Africa to test Iboga, a psychedelic herb which can cause
such profound insight that one dose equals twenty years of
psychoanalysis; to the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert
where cutting-edge technology meets radical self-exploration; to
Mexico and to the Amazon where shamanic traditions are practised
daily. Sceptical but curious, following in the footsteps of Aldous
Huxley and Terence McKenna, Daniel Pinchbeck guides his readers on
an astonishing journey around the world and through the mind. Are
you brave enough to suspend your post-modern cynicism and break
open the head with him?
