Fifty years ago, psychedelics or “mind-manifesting” drugs like LSD were considered cutting-edge science.

But this powerful hallucinogen became a street drug with a dangerous reputation, and it was eventually outlawed. Yet despite its illegality, an estimated 23 million Americans have taken LSD, and more than 600000 try it each year. Now, after more than three decades, cutting-edge science takes on psychedelics again.
