A compendium of the birth of and the transformative effect of a great discovery, LSD. This is the story of Albert Hofmann's life and the parallel story of LSD, highlighting his academic journey, his research at Sandoz and his discovery of LSD, and his open-minded, thoughtful philosophies about the drug, as well as his meetings and interactions with illustrious thinkers and luminaries. Aldous Huxley, Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert among others, established a prolific correspondence with Hofmann. He died at 102, vital, and open until his last breath.
