Just finished Mike Jay's fantastic #Psychonauts - Drugs and the Making of the Modern Mind. Riveting, richly sourced exploration of #psychoactive #drugs from #chloroform to #cannabis - focusing on self-experimentation and interpretations by scientists, doctors, and artists in the 19th century.
Highly recommended! Perhaps especially for those of us researching #psychedelics as the book provides so much historical context, contrast, and antecedents to what's going on with psychoactives now.

Anaesthetist administering chloroform using apparatus devised by Dr Raphael Dubois to meet the requirements of the great French physiologist Paul Bert (1833-1886). From 'La Nature', Paris, 1885.

Chloroform:
It's not like in the movies.
It takes a few moments.
They struggle. A lot.

An early photograph of stop motion surgery, when chloroform was still being used on puppets.
