Few topics in psychiatry over the past few years have generated as much curiosity and excitement among clinicians and laypeople as the use of psychedelics. For mental health professionals, psychedelics offer an opportunity to expand existing treatment options and to explore new ones that have the potential to change neuroplasticity and neuroconnectivity. For patients, they offer the hope of relief from illnesses that have not responded adequately to traditional treatments. When approaching the use of psychedelics in treatment, it is important to separate science from sensationalism. Expert-vetted and rigorously researched, Psychedelics: Transforming Psychiatry delivers an authoritative review of the current knowledge and evidence for the use of psychedelics in practice.
