520    "Until the twentieth century, scientists investigating the
       effects of drugs on the mind did so by experimenting on 
       themselves. Vivid descriptions of drug experiences sparked
       insights across the mind sciences, pharmacology, medicine,
       and philosophy. Accounts in journals and literary fiction 
       inspired a fascinated public to make their own experiments
       --in scientific demonstrations, on exotic travels, at 
       literary salons, and in occult rituals. But after 1900 
       drugs were increasingly viewed as a social problem, and 
       the long tradition of self-experimentation began to 
       disappear. From Sigmund Freud's experiments with cocaine 
       to William James's epiphany on nitrous oxide, Mike Jay 
       brilliantly recovers a lost intellectual tradition of drug
       -taking that fed the birth of psychology, the discovery of
       the unconscious, and the emergence of modernism. Today, as
       we embrace novel cognitive enhancers and psychedelics, the
       experiments of the original psychonauts reveal the deep 
       influence of mind-altering drugs on Western science, 
       philosophy, and culture." --|cFrom cover.
