Excerpt(s): Thanks to
Constance A. Newland's unsparing honesty and rare bravery, here
is the exciting and literally fantastic account of the unconscious
forces which block personal fulfillment. Under psychiatry's new
mind-loosening drug lysergic acid diethylamide-25, the powerful
psychochemical that induces hallucinations, Mrs. Newland penetrates
behind the paralyzing fear and murderous rages that we all harbor
within us. ... Praised by psychiatrists for its value as the
first case history
by an LSD patient, My Self and I
is even more important as a human document dealing with life's
major themes, love and hate. (jacket, boldface added)
