This will be a survey class on entheogens (also known as "psychedelics"), including their history at large as well as nationally, why they were suppressed during and since the 60's, and why there is a new resurgence of interest in them currently. We will also review their ethnobotany, phenomenology of mystical and other exceptional experiences they can evoke, and new uses, including entheogen-assisted psychotherapy for treatment of major depression, addiction, PTSD, end of life issues, social anxiety, etc.
