Mike Jay traces the cultural and scientific trajectory of mescaline, from its foundational role in indigenous rituals across the Americas to its emergence as a pivotal substance in Western psychiatry and counterculture. This comprehensive study examines how the alkaloid transformed from a sacred botanical element into a subject of rigorous laboratory analysis and global fascination.
