YOU ARE BUYING 4 BOOKS (Tetralogy) by JONATHAN OTT, they are as follows ==
A superb set of Jonathan Ott’s magnum opus, and one of the most significant works in the field of psychedelic theory, history,
philosophy, literature and science a cornerstone of any psychoactive drug collection.
FIRST EDITION HARDCOVERS 4 volumes uniformly bound, each in a different color of linen cloth and with a different shamanic vignette on the front cover.
All volumes are in fine condition. Three of them have a fine engraved bookplate.
All of these remarkable works were self-published, financed by subscribers who received signed and slipcased copies, part of this limited hardcover edition.
Although issued a few years apart, the author planned them as a tetralogy at the outset. There was a significantly larger printing of a trade paperback issue.
Jonathan Ott’s other works are a survey of the hallucinogenic plants of North America, the psychoactivity of cacahuatl (chocolate), entheogenic snuffs, and, with Jeremy Bigwood, an book-length account (Teonanacatl) of the famous hallucinogenic mushroom conference held in San Francisco in 1978.

PHARMACOTHEON: ENTHEOGENIC DRUGS, THEIR PLANT SOURCES AND HISTORY.
By JONATHAN OTT
Published
by Natural Products,
One of 1000 HARDCOVER copies.
Foreword by Albert Hofmann.
Pharmacotheon (Volume 1) is dedicated to the memory of Wasson. It is by far the most ambitious of the four works, being both an authoritative history of entheogens and an exhaustive bibliography, far surpassing earlier works in scope and detail.
The text is broken down into the categories of phenethylamines, indoles, and ‘sundry visionary compounds,’ and deals with the sweep of cultural history and shamanic use, botanical and chemistry, and a bibliography of nearly 2500 citations to books, offprints and journals.

First
Editions of one of the greatest works of modern psychedelic scholarship. The author preferred the term “entheogenic”
(God within), a word he coined together with Gordon
Wasson, Albert Hofmann and Carl Ruck, announcing it at the Hallucinogen
Mushroom Conference in
(They wanted it to replace “psychedelic” Humphry Osmond’s term to free it from association with the 1960s counterculture, and although the term entheogenic caught on in the academic world, it failed to dislodge ”psychedelic” in the popular culture.)
