The Psilocybin Chef Cookbook<\/h3>\t\t\t

Virginia Haze and Dr. K. Mandrake, PhD<\/strong>
\nIf you’ve mastered the art of growing mushrooms at home and have your growing method tuned in perfectly, or you’ve just got very good at foraging and have a reliable patch, you’ll have an endless stream of psilocybin-containing mushrooms. But where do you go from here? What’s the best method of extraction to minimize loss, and how can you stave off the dreaded nausea every time you dose? What’s the deal with microdosing, and how do you do it safely? And if you want to put on a three-course dosed dinner for a few of your best friends, what are the best dishes to cook? All these questions are answered, deliciously, in The Psilocybin Chef Cookbook. Fully illustrated, with mouth watering full-color photos throughout.

The Mind of Plants. Narratives of Vegetal Intelligence<\/h3>\t\t\t

Edited by John C. Ryan, Patricia Veira and Monica Cagliano<\/strong>
\nThis book offers an accessible account of the idea of \u201cthe plant mind\u201d by bringing together short essays and poems on plants and their interactions with humans. The texts interpret the theme broadly\u2014from the ways that humans mind and unmind plants to the mindedness or unmindedness of plants themselves. Authors from the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences have written about their personal connections to particular plants, reflecting upon their research on plant studies in a style amenable to a broad audience. Each of the authors has selected a plant that functions as a guiding thread to their interpretation of \u201cthe mind of plants.\u201d From the ubiquitous rose to the ugly hornwort, from the Amazonian ayahuasca to tobacco, the texts reflect the multifarious interactions between humans and flora.

Psychedelic Justice. Toward a Diverse and Equitable Psychedelic Culture<\/h3>\t\t\t

Beatriz Labate and Clancy Cavnar (Eds.)<\/strong>
\nRadical, cultural transformation is the guiding force behind this socially visionary anthology. Its unifying value is social justice. The book highlights Chacruna\u2019s ongoing work promoting diversity and inclusion by prominently featuring voices that have been long marginalized in Western psychedelic culture: women, queer people, people of color, and indigenous people. The essays examine both historical and current issues within psychedelics that many may not know about. The essays examine both historical and current issues within psychedelics that many may not know about, and orient around policy, reciprocity, diversity and inclusion, sex and power, colonialism, and indigenous concerns. We believe the book can be another tool to help Chacruna and its allies continue to push for justice and inclusion in the greater psychedelic culture.
