It is possible to imagine a world where depression is resolved (in two sessions, with ayahuasca), even that resistant to treatments (thanks to ketamine);where dependencies are a memory:psylocybin has washed away those from alcohol and tobacco, and ibogain those from heroin and cocaine;in that place, the fear of the death of the terminally ill is dissolved by the LSD; while the DMT has opened the souls to a new idea of spirituality.In fact, that world could already be here, provided that the psychedelic bet is won.The authors of this book try to do so, wondering how psychedelia already defines reality today, trying to say not only what these substances are but investigating what they do and what they could still do.In these pages we try to understand why, even if undertraced and impalpable, these molecules concern us.To write it is a group of intellectuals – writers, journalists, politicians, raver, scientists, literary critics and memer – who tell what is hidden beyond the facade of the "psychedelic Renaissance", or the series of revolutionary scientific discoveries of the last fifteen years.
