"In March 1971, Terence McKenna, his brother, Dennis, and a small Gypsy-like band "bound by friendship, extravagant imagination, naivete, and a dedication to travel and exotic experience" set off on an expedition to the Amazon basin in search of the mythical shamanistic hallucinogen of the Witoto, oo-koo-he. What ensued was perhaps the most bizarre experience in ethnobiologist McKenna's already bizarre life and the germination of McKenna's theory that psilocybin, the psychoactive ingredient in the Stropharia cubensis mushroom, is the missing link in the development of human consciousness and language." "True Hallucinations is the mesmerizing, fast-paced, and surreal account of this intellectual odyssey and the planet-shattering secret it revealed, culminating in the Experiment at La Chorrera, a small settlement along the Rio Putumayo in Colombian Amazonas where "the loquacious mushrooms...spun a myth and issued a prophecy, in quite specific detail, of a planet-saving global shift of consciousness." It is here that Terence's brother, Dennis, becomes possessed by the idea that the mushroom is the doorway to the planet Earth's "bonded complex of superconductive harmine-psilocybin-DNA."" "After encountering a cast of remarkable characters - including a mushroom, a flying saucer, pirate Mantids from outerspace, an appearance by James and Nora Joyce, and translinguistic matter - McKenna's band discovers "that the universe is stranger than we can suppose" and reverently "genuflect[s] before the weirdness of it all.""--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Have you ever seen something that wasn't really there? Heard someone call your name in an empty house? Sensed someone following you and turned around to find nothing? Hallucinations don't belong wholly to the insane. Much more commonly, they are linked to sensory deprivation, intoxication, illness, or injury. In some conditions, hallucinations can lead to religious epiphanies or even the feeling of leaving one's own body. Humans have always sought such life-changing visions, and for thousands of years have used hallucinogenic compounds to achieve them. In Hallucinations, with his usual elegance, curiosity, and compassion, Dr Oliver Sacks weaves together stories of his patients and of his own mind-altering experiences to illuminate what hallucinations tell us about the organization and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every culture's folklore and art, and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all, a vital part of the human condition.

Scientific and philosophical perspectives on hallucination: essays that draw on empirical evidence from psychology, neuroscience, and cutting-edge philosophical theory. Reflection on the nature of hallucination has relevance for many traditional philosophical debates concerning the nature of the mind, perception, and our knowledge of the world. In recent years, neuroimaging techniques and scientific findings on the nature of hallucination, combined with interest in new philosophical theories of perception such as disjunctivism, have brought the topic of hallucination once more to the forefront of philosophical thinking. Scientific evidence from psychology, neuroscience, and psychiatry sheds light on the functional role and physiology of actual hallucinations; some disjunctivist theories offer a radically new and different philosophical conception of hallucination. This volume offers interdisciplinary perspectives on the nature of hallucination, offering essays by both scientists and philosophers. Contributors first consider topics from psychology and neuroscience, including neurobiological mechanisms of hallucination and the nature and phenomenology of auditory-verbal hallucinations. Philosophical discussions follow, with contributors first considering disjunctivism and then, more generally, the relation between hallucination and the nature of experience.
