"Claudio Naranjo's revolutionary approach to psychiatric treatment through the compressing experience of psychedelics shows us that the process we have deprecatingly called therapy is actually part of the great journey of growth described by Dante, available in the myths and religious visions of all time."
-- Gay Luce

"Claudio Naranjo's work with certain exotic psychedelic drugs in the context of psychotherapy, as described in The Healing Journey, is exciting and provides evidence of the therapeutic potential of these substances when they are used by someone sympathetic to their magical nature. I hope the book will stimulate other psychiatrists to experiment in this area."
-- Andrew Weil
