Summary: Pure Ambrosia
Comment: This work by Hofman/Ott has so impressed me that I have shared it with many colleagues in the Holistic Health Field. Regardless of your political views on the medicinal or recreational use of illicit substances in the United States, reading this work will most definitely enhance your opinion! The political history of restriction and regulation of naturally occuring plants and the substances they hold was absolutely riveting. I found this work by studying the life of Dr Hoxsey, a controversial Naturopath who used salves and tinctures to treat cancer in the 20's and 30's. Building on political history, the authors discuss the shamanistic uses of many of these plants and how early man viewed the sacredness of their effects. How the loss of the sense of "sacredness" in our society affected the "psychodelic" sixties. An absolutely incredible work that I often refer back to in order to understand how it has changed my view on the uses of such plants, government's desire to control them and the space left for society at large.

Summary: Pharmacotheon = Bible
Comment: Besides being really thick and imposing, this tome is really heavy. Really, really heavy. Jonathan Ott takes the time to document every reference ever published (seemingly, at least) while creating a surprisingly entertaining read.
This book is the Bible. I have never read a text more accurate, more useful, and more informative. If you can find this book, buy it. Protect it. Cherish it. Buy it presents. Take it on trips to the zoo- in fact, take it everywhere you go.
I do, and it has changed my life.
Rating: 5
Summary: encyclopedic fun
Comment: a comprehensive, mind-blowing book written by a brilliant researcher and talented writer.
Ott is one of those minds that turns over every rock, looks around every corner and behind every door to uncover for you, the reader, each sumptuous detail of his subject.
Get your hands on every book this man has written.
