Ten Trips

A collection of tales from the far frontiers of psychedelic experience … superb … brilliant – Charles Foster * TLS *
Canny and somewhat sceptical … rigorous and penetrating … illuminating … this is a wonderful book, a journey into the nature and potential of consciousness itself, and of life on this troubled and monopolised planet * Literary Review *
Philosophical and darkly humorous … for all the mystical experiences [psychedelics] afford, divesting them of their shadow side does seekers a disservice, Mitchell holds * Spectator *
A powerful reminder that psychedelics can’t be made sense of entirely within a framework of chemical interactions in the brain. We need to view them as something potent, to be respected * New Scientist *
An incisive, deeply personal and beautifully written account of the power, the uses and the modern misuses of psychedelics. Highly recommended – Anil Seth, author of Being You
An original and thrilling investigation into psychedelics and the claims that currently surround them, achieving profound insights into their essential qualities – Mike Jay, author of Psychonauts
Utterly compelling. Some books are in a category of their own and this is one them. Reading it is like having an out of body experience – Mark Miodownik, author of Stuff Matters
Beguiling, captivating, mind-expanding. It’s impossible to read this book and not be tempted to replicate some of its wild, sanity-stretching forays into the peculiarities of human perception – Stuart Ritchie, author of Science Fictions
A dazzling, timely book, as deep and poignant as it is madcap and hilarious – Professor Mark Lythgoe, Director of the Centre for Advanced Biomedical Imaging, University College London
A hair-raising hurtle of a ride into the belly of the psychedelic renaissance, fuelled by spectacular prose – Henry Shukman, author of One Blade of Grass
