How genetic engineering can power the psychedelic renaissance and change our minds - and our world - one molecule at a time.

The psychedelic renaissance has gained momentum in recent years, given its demonstrated value in the treatment of major global mental health issues, like PTSD and depression, as well as its well-documented use in the search for spiritual enlightenment. But the question of how psychedelics are sourced, i.e., where they come from, remains largely unknown to most users, both professional and recreational. Previous works have shown that, yes, psychedelic drugs can change our worldview. But can this unexplored avenue into human consciousness change not only our perception -- but the actual world we live in?

Written for both the layman and the scientifically inclined, the book examines the historical context for the use of psychedelics, their means of sourcing, whether by chemical synthesis or natural extraction, and their often hidden ecological, environmental, and ethical consequences. Gerst delves into the individual biosynthetic pathways that lead to psychedelic synthesis in a comprehensive, scientific manner to shed light on how these materials are derived -- and how we can now harness genetic engineering to further the psychedelic renaissance.
