Krátky popis
From biochemistry to myth, medicine and meaning – discover the
species that shaped rituals, rewired minds and transformed
societies.What connects Siberian shamans, Amazonian healers,
medieval monks and Silicon Valley biohackers? Why have humans
across every culture sought out plants that alter perception, mood
and consciousness? And how did humble species like the betel leaf
or kanna come to shape entire rituals, economies and belief
systems?Psychoactive Plants &,amp, Fungi is a vivid, accessible
introduction to 42 remarkable species that have captivated, healed
and transformed people throughout history. From everyday stimulants
like coffee and tea to rare ceremonial plants like iboga or kola
nut, each profile explores the cultural origins, traditional uses
and mind-altering effects of these botanicals – many of which
remain central to spiritual practices, social customs and even
modern wellness trends.Richly illustrated and global in scope, the
book brings together folklore, pharmacology and anthropology to
show how psychoactive species have shaped human experience – both
ordinary and extraordinary. This is not a field guide or a how-to
manual, but a cultural companion for the curious reader: part
ethnobotanical history, part celebration of our long and complex
relationship with the plant and fungi kingdoms.
