"A genuine spiritual quest. . . . Extraordinary." — New York Times

Among the most profound and influential explorations of mind-expanding psychedelic drugs ever written, a complete classic book—The Doors of Perception —in which Aldous Huxley, author of Brave New World, reveals the mind's remote frontiers and the unmapped areas of human consciousness.

The Doors of Perception by Huxley blends Eastern mysticism with scientific experimentation to produce one of the most influential works on the effects of hallucinatory drugs on the human psyche. 

Huxley's essays The Doors of Perception ushered in a whole new generation of counter-culture icons such as Jackson Pollock, John Cage, Timothy Leary and Jim Morrison. In fact, Morrison's band name The Doors was inspired by The Doors of Perception.
