Review
"Fascinating and provocative. A remarkable exploration of the boundaries of science and consciousness itself." ( Rupert Sheldrake, author of The Presence of the Past )
"Rick Strassman's pioneering research work with DMT, a natural psychedelic drug used by Amazonian Indians, raises fascinating questions about the neurochemical basis of experience and the feasibility of conducting human research with mind-altering drugs in a university medical center. Truly adventurous reading!"
(Andrew Weil, M.D., author of Spontaneous Healing )
"DMT: The Spirit Molecule is a tantalizing peek into a new model of how the brain and mind work."
(Bruce Greyson, editor of the Journal of Near-Death Studies, Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Virginia )
"This book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the mind, philosophy, the nature of reality, and spirituality."
"DMT: The Spirit Molecule points the way beyond the present impasse of the reigning 'drug abuse' paradigm."
"The most extensive scientific study of the mental and perceptual effects of a psychedelic drug since the 1960s."
(Ralph Metzner, Ph.D., author of Ayahuasca: Consciousness and the Spirits of Nature )
"Strassman's important research contributes to a growing awareness that we inhabit a multi-dimensional universe."
"Strassman raises vital questions about the origin of spiritual experiences and the nature of consciousness."
(Larry Dossey MD, author of Reinventing Medicine, and Healing Words; Executive Editor, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine )
"DMT: The Spirit Molecule is a fascinating journey into the research of psychedelics. . . . The questions and possible explanations about the endogenous presence of DMT that he raises not only enlarge the discussion about psychedelics but also expand our understanding of the nature of consciousness."
(Jule Klotter, Townsend Letter for Doctors & Patients - July, 2001 )
"This book will be of profound interest to . . . anyone with a deep interest in the study of consciousness, visionary states and/or psycho-pharmacology."
"Strassman's psychonauts regularly found themselves hurtled into alien laboratories, high-tech nurseries, and Day-Glo hieroglyphic hypercubes."
(Erik Davis, The Village Voice )
"DMT: the Spirit Molecule is an enriching journey into one scientist's courageous attempt to solve a bit more of the brain/mind/spirit mystery at the center of human existence."
(Vicki Ecker, UFO Magazine, December-January 2002 )
"What you will find is a thoughtful, well-written report about another of life's mysteries."
(James Dekorne, Fortean Times, November 2001 )
"Strassman's research was an important step, one that will potentially illuminate the path for future researchers and volunteers alike, and this book is a great contribution to the ongoing dialogue surrounding psychedelics."
(Scotto, Trip, Fall 2001 )
"This is probably the most thorough book on the psychedelic, DMT--its history, chemistry, uses (legal and illegal), and its effects. This is a very compelling, thoughtful book, written by a scrupulous scientist with the soul of a meditator."
"The account of the project is an excellent inside view of human drug studies, especially those with psychedelics."
(Paul Von Ward, The AHP Perspective, June/July 2002 )
"This book is a highly readable, intriguing, provocative description of Rick Strassman's theories and research concerning the effects of DMT."
(Alissa Hirshfeld-Flores, M.A., LMFT, The American Journal of Psychiatry, August 2002 )
"Rick Strassman's experimentation with the psychoactive substance DMT is taking up where Leary's 1950/60's LSD experiments stopped."
(Rev. Dr. S. D'Montford, New Dawn, Jan-Feb 2006 )
