“A thought-provoking and intelligent journey.” —Johann Hari, New York Times bestselling author of Stolen Focus and Lost Connections

A groundbreaking work of narrative journalism exposing the race to profit off the psychedelic revolution, and the immense power of the mental health industry.

When investigative journalist Olivia Goldhill started reporting on psychedelics a decade ago, the science suggested these criminalized drugs would transform the mental health industry. Studies showed that psychedelics could alleviate depression and trauma and were set to be the first new mental health treatment in a generation. But as she kept reporting, she discovered their promise was under threat.

A battle was brewing—a fight not just for control of psychedelics, but for the very meaning of the drugs. Hippies and scientists believed tripping was the gateway to a more holistic approach to mental health, built around therapy and community support. But billionaire-backed entrepreneurs also saw an opportunity and worked to quash these efforts with cutthroat pharmaceutical tactics, churning out pills for profit. Meanwhile, activists in Oregon had a radical plan to create their own version of psychedelic therapy, entirely outside of the medical sphere.

In Empire of the Mind, Goldhill dives into the world of corporate behemoths, nonprofits, and community activists, each fighting for the future of these potentially transformative—and lucrative—psychedelic drugs. With gripping on-the-ground reporting, she sounds an urgent alarm about how one of the last vestiges of counterculture could end up tamed into a capitalist product.

批評家のレビュー

Turn on, tune in, cash out. This riveting expose reveals the big money and power trying to hijack the psychedelic revolution. The wild story spins from shocking cover ups to outlandish patent battles, revealing the enormous stakes in a hidden fight over the human mind.
Olivia Goldhill is a tenacious reporter, and Empire of the Mind is an insightful and compelling account of the forces shaping the psychedelic renaissance—a story of idealists, opportunism and the seemingly unshakable constraints of human nature. An essential read for understanding the strange new industry of altered states.
As psychedelics race toward acceptance as medications for our minds, Olivia Goldhill waves a much-needed and well-researched yellow flag. Empire of the Mind exposes the dark side of the gurus, research institutions, and industry players that have promoted psychedelics as nearly magical cures.
This is such an important book: so beautifully written and moving that it holds its journalistic rigour lightly. Whether you’re an enthusiastic psychonaut or have never heard of Timothy Leary, Empire of the Mind is a gripping tour through an area of science, health and philosophy that is controversial, complex and fascinating.
Empire of the Mind is an urgent, front-line account from the battle for the soul of psychedelics. Goldhill's expansive and fearless journalism exposes the troubling journey of psychedelics from cultural practices to corporate assets.
An absorbing and deeply researched account of the ongoing attempts to integrate psychedelics, with all their strangeness and unpredictability, into the risk-averse and aggressively financialised world of licensed pharma and clinical medicine. Will psychedelics transform our approach to mental health, or will they become just another pill?
