Description

The Doors of Perception and Heaven and Hell, two classic books by Aldous Huxley, are among the most profound and influential explorations of psychedelic drugs ever written. Written during the period in which Huxley was taking mescaline and studying Eastern mysticism, this extraordinary work inspired generations of intellectuals and artists. Now in a new edition that includes an additional essay never published before, Drugs That Shape Men Minds, these two classic books remain a genuine spiritual quest.
