Description

A measured and astute analysis of the role psychedelics increasingly play in our society – from microdosing to the treatment of trauma – and where we're heading next. During the pandemic, microdosing went mainstream as burnt-out parents and workers sought to navigate stress and fatigue. In an inversion of the hippie dream, psychedelics are increasingly being used to stabilise a consumerist system in crisis. Yet personal testimony and scientific research suggest that these apparent stabilisers could instead be a source of transformation – unlocking greater energy, creativity, wellbeing and connection to our surroundings. The tidal wave of antidepressants has failed to heal us – could psychedelics fill the gap and more? Brilliantly marshalling original expert analysis and interviews, High Definition probes how the psychedelic renaissance could be not merely a barometer of social change, but a catalyst for it, exploring practices and applications, the legislative and corporate picture, and the powerful emancipatory potential of psychedelics. AUTHOR: Benjamin Ramm is a journalist, the former editor of The Liberal and a sustainability consultant. He is currently co-founding Honeydew, a psychedelic community, due to open in northern Italy in 2023. Originally from north London, he lives between France and Italy and speaks fluent French.
