Michael Pollan

You can expect Michael Pollan to talk about consuming during this talk but not about food, his usual fare. Instead, he'll likely dive into how LSD and psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, are used to provide relief to people with hard-to-treat conditions. His new book, How to Change Your Mind: What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression and Transcendence, is his most personal yet. The ticket price includes a copy.
