Description

A pioneering and revolutionary book that lays the foundation for a radical new psychology, based on an expanded cartography of the human unconsciousness.

Famous for his lifelong research into psychedelic drugs, Dr. Grof constructs a comprehensive and helpful framework out of the broad range of experiences triggered by LSD in patients and research subjects. Current research into the brain and ways of expanding consciousness give this seminal book, first published in 1979, new importance for the light it throws on many fundamental, but hitherto mysterious, human potentialities.

Grof's theory of the human psyche transcends the personal and opens ways to a greater understanding of our inner selves.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Realms of the Human Unconscious by Stanislav Grof is highly praised for its groundbreaking integration of Freud and Jung's insights with fresh perspectives unattainable through traditional psychotherapy methods. Notable figures like Joseph Campbell and Abraham Maslow recognise its significant contribution to personality theory, while reviews highlight its rich references to mythology and mysticism. The book is described as challenging to absorb but essential for those interested in confronting profound aspects of the human psyche, and offers a comprehensive study of LSD's impact on healing.
