This is the last of hickey

Well I guess I'm supposed to post again this week, since others have. I'm not sure how to sum up my experiences reading this book in a way I have not already done, so I guess I'll use this forum topic to discuss the social construction of psychedelia.

I have always believed this was true: that moments under the influence of psychedelic drugs, no matter how "open-minded" the recipient, are largely reflections of amassed, socially construed and politically galvanized aspirations for those moments. They are also deeper, meditative revelations about the psyche of a culture.

Well, there you go, I'm not sure if this is necessary, but that was my week 9 forum posting. Hope you enjoyed it.
