Enzyklopädie der psychoaktiven Pflanzen – Band 2

The global standard work on psychotropic ethnobotany is being expanded. Volume 2 of the Encyclopedia of Psychoactive Plants contains over 500 new plants, fungi, lichens, and bacteria in more than 140 monographs - from Acacia to Zornia and from Agrocybe to Xanthoparmelia - as well as new research on the plants from the first volume. An additional 350 psychoactive plants, whose potential is yet to be explored, are listed in tabular form. Furthermore, the cultural history of psychoactive plants and their influence on the visual arts, music, and literature is presented. Newly indexed plant and mushroom products, explanations of their most important secondary metabolites, and extensive literature references complete the volume. A must-have for anyone dealing with psychoactive substances.
