{"product_id":"altered-perspectives-sam-woolfe-9781803416533","title":"Altered Perspectives: Critical Essays on Psychedelic Consciousness","description":"This collection of essays delves into some of the strangest and most profound aspects of the psychedelic experience, such as seeing the self as an illusion, feelings of deep insight, the sublime (fear mixed with wonder), encounters with DMT entities, déjà vu, and existential joy. Drawing on research and theories from a variety of disciplines, Sam Woolfe reflects on the ways that altered states may inform our understanding of consciousness, the self, and reality. Particular attention is paid to the philosophy of psychedelics, with the aim of clarifying altered states through the lenses of metaphysics, philosophy of mind, epistemology, aesthetics, existentialism, and Buddhism. In these essays, Woolfe balances open-mindedness with a critical and sceptical perspective - he believes that this approach is necessary when examining psychedelic consciousness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sam Woolfe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 180341653X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781803416533\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Iff Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.51h x 5.56w x 0.77d","brand":"Sam Woolfe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46431507611903,"sku":"9781803416533","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e0527e6c-c91e-453c-a57d-b4733ad10603.jpg?v=1735141545","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/altered-perspectives-sam-woolfe-9781803416533","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
