Pharmako/Dynamis: Stimulating Plants, Potions, & Herbcraft (Pharmako Volii)

3 reviews
Dale Pendell

Mercury House, 2002

Stimulating plants....
Since my own interests include gardening, herbs, plant poisons, and natural pharmaceuticals such as caffeine, I quickly decided Dale Pendell's PHARMAKO-DYNAMIS and PHARMAKO-POEIA were must-read books for me. These books are also for historians, drug counselors, people who write laws associated with drug use, those concerned with the impoverishment of countries invaded by world-based ...

Mercury House, 1994

Wonderful overview of medicinal plants....
PHARMAKO-DYNAMIS and PHARMAKO-POEIA by Dale Pendell contain much of interest to gardeners, artists, historians, drug counselors, and drug users. Pendell suggests that how a plant substance is defined (poison, drug, medicine) depends on the dosage, length of use, and intent of the user. In other words, if plant-based drugs are "abused" the problem lies not in our plants but in our selves. He says ...

Inspired Madness: The Gifts of Burning Man

Dale Pendell

Frog Books, 2006

Inspired Writer!
"What is Burning Man?" Please read this book. This inspired work covers the modern-day history-making event with impressive conciseness and depth. Finish this delightful and philosophical "page-turner" and you'll walk away with the next best thing to being there. If you've never been, perhaps now you'll finally head straight for the Playa. If you've been once or many times, Pendell's work ...

Dale Pendell

Mercury House, 2004

Essential Reading, a Modern Classic
"Pharmako/Gnosis" is the crown jewel of Pendell's superb trilogy, and indispensable reading for anyone interested in psychedelics, botany, anthropology, and earnest inquiry into the nature of existence. Covering LSD, mescaline and peyote, DMT, psilocybin mushrooms, esoterica like Syrian rue and even xenon inhalation, as well as other signposts on what he calls "the Poison Path," Pendell continues ...

Entheogens and the Future of Religion

5 reviews
Robert Forte, Terence McKenna, ...

Promind Services, 1997

Entheogens? Yes!
This is a great book for anyone interested in this subject, whether initiate or not. It provides insight from a number of the initial 20th century pioneers, as well as gives us a window into the inner ritual as performed by the more rural indian "initiates". I would recommend this book to anyone interested in using entheogens, writing about entheogens, or anyone who has used them ...
