Peter Stafford's encyclopedia is not a dull enumeration of psychoactive substances but a travelguide which every psychonaut should carry in his luggage. It draws from scientific research, personal accounts and popular literature to document the properties attributed to psychedelic substances, their preparation and use, and shifting social attitudes toward them over the past half-century. This is a remarkable sourcebook for anyone interested in the psychological, biological, physiological and cultural aspects of psychedelic drugs. A fascinating historical reference on psychedelica, from the LSD-25 of the sixties, to the memory and cognitive enhancers of today. Includes over 200 illustrations. The encyclopedia describes among other things:

• the LSD family
• marijuana & relatives
• peyote, mescaline and san pedro
• psychoactive mushrooms
• the MDA cluster
• yage & harmaline
• ibogaine
• short-acting tryptamins like DMT, DET and DPT
• smartdrugs / nootropics
• other psychoactive substances
