Description
In these two classic books, originally published in the 1950s, Huxley explores the mind's remote frontiers and the unmapped areas of human consciousness. As a user of mind-altering drugs like mescaline and LSD, he came to believe that they gave users essentially the same experiences that mystics attained through fasting, prayer, and meditation. The books became essential texts for the counterculture during the 1960s. -- adapted from back cover and page 5 of P.S. section.
