While much of the literature to date has focused on the history of these drugs in the United States and Canada, editors Erika Dyck and Chris Elcock deliberately move away from these places in this collection to reveal a longer and more global history of psychedelics, which chronicles their discovery, use, and cultural impact in the twentieth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors in this collection explore everything from LSD psychotherapy in communist Czechoslovakia to the first applications of LSD-25 in South America to the intersection of modernism and ayahuasca in China. Along the way, they also consider how psychedelic experiments generated their own cultural expressions, where the specter of the United States may have loomed large and where colonial empires exerted influence on the local reception of psychedelics in botanical and pharmaceutical pursuits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBreaking new ground by adopting perspectives that are currently lacking in the historiography of psychedelics, this collection adds to the burgeoning field by offering important discussions on underexplored topics such as gender, agriculture, parapsychology, anarchism, and technological innovations.INTRODUCTION 1\u003cbr\u003e Erika Dyck and Chris Elcock\u003cbr\u003e I EVALUATING EVIDENCE\/EXPERIENCE 21\u003cbr\u003e 1 NECTAR OF THE BLUE GODDESS: A LIVING TRADITION OF SOMA CONSUMPTION IN WEST BENGAL, INDIA 23\u003cbr\u003e Ian A.
