>Jim's connection to the power of psychedelics began at Harvard, where he
>was the student of both Tim Leary and RIchard Alpert.  He went on to
>conduct legal research with LSD at the international Foundation for
>Advanced Study in California, and did his PhD Disseration (a first and a
>last for Stanford) on Behavior Change following LSD, a thesis which
>underscored the value of a positive set and setting to ensure a "good
>trip" as well as to bring unheralded insights.  This book rekindles
>memories for those who remember, and were "there" in body and/or Spirit,
>while it sparks curiosity and new interest for those who were not.
