	Description:		Could psychedelic drugs change our worldview? Michael Pollan, one of America's most admired Writers, takes us on a mind-altering journey to the frontiers of human consciousness. In conversation with Rosie Boycott. A materialist, a sceptic, a storyteller, Michael Pollan is the bestselling author of some of our greatest thinking on human nature and nutrition. In mid-life, he here turns his attention to one of the most intriguing stories of the 20th century; the scientific promise and cultural burial of psychedelic research and its renaissance today in the public conversation around mental health, palliative care, addictive behaviours and a loss of personal meaning and connection in modern societies. Recorded at The Tabernacle in London in June 2018. 5x15 brings together five outstanding individuals to tell of their lives, passions and inspirations. There are only two rules - no scripts and only 15 minutes each.
