>>I've been reading about this with great interest as I am a long-time believer that psychedelics and psychotropics were a missed opportunity. If you've never read "Politics of Experience" by R.D. Laing who used LSD to treat schizophrenics at a UK facility ( Kingsley Hall) I recommend it. Definitely a product of its time but fascinating nonetheless.
