Description: Besides being illegal, LSD has not had good press, associated with bad trips and psychological breakdown. But with a new craze for microdosing acid amongst Silicon Valley whizz kids and management gurus, and respected scientists claiming antidepressant benefits, might we have been too quick to ban psychedelics? Could they be a means to deepen experience and enhance our lives? Or is this all dangerous hippy nonsense? Pharmacologist and former Home Office drugs advisor David Nutt, drugs reformer and director of the Beckley Foundation Amanda Fielding and founder of the Psychedelic Society Stephen Reid. In association with the New College of the Humanities.
