Journal of Near-Death Studies January 1, 2003 J. Fadiman, J. Gruber
A review of Rick Strassman's book 'DMT: The Spirit Molecule,' which describes his clinical research on the psychedelic compound DMT and its effects on human consciousness, particularly in relation to near-death and mystical experiences. The review notes that Strassman, a medical school professor, presents his pioneering studies administering DMT to volunteers, exploring the biology and phenomenology of profound altered states. The book argues that DMT may provide insights into the nature of consciousness and spiritual experiences, linking biochemistry to subjective phenomena.
