Hip Santa Cruz 7: First person accounts of the Hip Culture of Santa Cruz, California From 1960's - 2024 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781966293071)

Hip Santa Cruz #7 celebrates the life and passing of Dr. Ralph Abraham, Professor of Mathematics and Chaos theory at UCSC. The Hip Santa Cruz series grew from several storytelling circles we held in the 1990's in Santa Cruz. Ralph wanted to Know how the use of psychedelics has affected the lives and well being of members of our community who have used it. Using tape-recorders, notebooks and our memories, we interviewed and published over 100 accounts from members of our community--creatives, professionals, a diverse mix of folks from all walks of life..

Volume 7 is the Capstone of our series. It answers Ralph's original Question: How are psychedelics actually affecting our lives and our work? We hope it will inspire and awaken curiosity in all of our readers
