　　This paperback edition has a new introduction by the author

and updated content.

This is the first volume of North Atlantic Books’ updated

paperback edition of Dale Pendell’s Pharmako trilogy, an

encyclopedic study of the history and uses of psychoactive plants

and related synthetics first published between 1995 and 2005. The

books form an interrelated suite of works that provide the reader

with a unique, reliable, and often personal immersion in this

medically, culturally, and spiritually fascinating subject. All

three books are beautifully designed and illustrated, and are

written with unparalleled authority, erudition, playfulness, and

range.

Pharmako/Poeia: Plant Powers, Poisons, and Herbcraft includes a

new introduction by the author and as in previous editions focuses

on familiar psychoactive plant-derived substances and related

synthetics, ranging from the licit (tobacco, alcohol) to the

illicit (cannabis, opium) and the exotic (absinthe, salvia

divinorum, nitrous oxide). Each substance is explored in detail,

not only with information on its history, pharmacology,

preparation, and cultural and esoteric correspondences, but also

the subtleties of each plant’s effect on consciousness in a way

that only poets can do. The whole concoction is sprinkled with

abundant quotations from famous writers, creating a literary brew

as intoxicating as its subject.

The Pharmako series is continued in Pharmako/Dynamis (focusing on

stimulants and empathogens) and Pharmako/Gnosis (which addresses

psychedelics and shamanic plants).

‘Fermentation is oxidation, fire; it returns carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. The parasite: you build it up, I break it down. The poison called petroleum is from fungi; industrial civilization is the fermenting parasite.’

‘Necromania: Got the blues in my coffee, got the blues in my head,

if I die in the gutter, God almighty now,

at least I’d be dead.’
