Ketamin

Few psychoactive substances exhibit such a wide pharmacological spectrum as ketamine, depending on the dose and method of administration. The psychotropic effects of "Special K" range from mild euphoria to bizarre dissociative short trips, as well as psychonautical and spiritual breakthrough experiences, and deep anesthesia. The drug is not subject to narcotics laws and is currently used as a club drug, transformative catalyst, psycholytic or psychiatric aid, and as a clinical anesthetic. Markus Berger's book is the first in the German language to comprehensively address all these aspects of a highly interesting substance that seems to have extravagant psychoactive effects not of this world. It includes contributions from Torsten Passie, Christian Rätsch, Roberdo Raval, and others.
