| Contenu: | Psychedelia Britannica is a groundbreaking collection of essays on the use and influence of LSD, hashish, ecstasy and other psychedelic drugs in British culture and society. From Lewis Carroll to R.D. Laing, Pink Floyd to Ambient House, this unique anthology examines how a wide range of substances have provided writers, artists, and psychiatrists with a means of exploring altered states of consciousness, and why drugs have played such a central role in the counter-cultures of the '60s and '90s. With much written of psychedelics in an American context, Psychedelia Britannica is the first book of its kind to focus exclusively on the British Experience. Tracing the much neglected history of drug use and experimentation across various fields, the anthology includes essays from Stuart Metcalfe on Ecstasy, Simon Reynolds on psychedelic music, Ronald Sandison on LSD therapy and Alexander Trocchi on drugs and literary imagination.
