“Don Lattin’s Changing Our Minds is far and away the best book on psychedelic use and research available today… Lattin not only fully describes the important trends in research, but includes valuable back stories of the major researchers, and why they have given so much of their professional lives to such risky endeavors. Now, when people ask me, is there one book I can read about the multiple dimensions of current psychedelic research,, I can say, Changing Our Minds will give you everything you need.” — James Fadiman, PhD, author of The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide: Safe, Therapeutic and Sacred Journeys

“Don Lattin has done compassionate service by bringing together the current work on the profound potential of psychedelics to treat addiction, fear of death, and physical and mental struggles. It has taken years but now researchers are able to use these methods to inquire into some of our most challenging issues, including, in fact, what it means to be human. This riveting report of these diverse explorations will certainly encourage others to expand the field.” — Mirabai Bush, Senior Fellow, Center for Contemplative Mind in Society

“Don Lattin’s Changing Our Minds is far and away the best book on psychedelic use and research available today. Although I’m supposed to know all this stuff, my copy is clut-tered with underlinings, the margins speckled with exclama-tion points and emoji, and the front empty pages filled with notations of why I need to return to numerous pages. Through a combination of personal friendships, experiencing what he’s writing about, and just plain old-fashioned superior journalism, Lattin not only fully describes the important trends in research, but includes valuable back stories of the major researchers, and why they have given so much of their pro-fessional lives to such risky endeavors. Now, when people ask me, is there one book I can read about the multiple dimensions of current psychedelic research, I can say, Changing Our Minds will give you everything you need.” — James Fadiman, PhD, author of The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide — Safe, Therapeutic and Sacred Journeys

“Accurate, Comprehensive, and Powerful; If you want to under-stand the responsible use of psychedelics and feel its pulse, this book is for you.” — William A. Richards, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine Of Sacred Knowledge: Psyche-delics and Religious Experiences

“Don Lattin tells the amazing stories about the rise of psychedelics, their benefits, and their colorful and inspiring champions, all the while retaining his journalistic voice. Changing Our Minds will be an important reference for generations to come.” — Allan Badiner, editor, Zig Zag Zen Buddhism and Psychedelics

“Changing Our Minds expertly explores the healing and spiritual journey catalyzed by psychedelic psychotherapy through the courageous voices of those who are pioneering the study of these treatments. An essential read for those interested in the expanding field of psychedelic research for therapeutic and spiritual uses, this volume lands at a crucial time during the re-emergence of psychedelic research as we approach the mainstream, scientific acceptance of psychedelic psychotherapy and the reintegration of the legal use of psychedelics into Western culture.” — Rick Doblin, PhD., Founder & Executive Director of MAPS, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies
