High Society : Mind-Altering Drugs in History and Culture Mike Jay
High Society explores the spectrum of drug use across the globe and throughout history, from its roots in animal intoxication to its future in designer neurochemicals. Designed to accompany the 2010 Wellcome Collection exhibition, and beautifully illustrated with rarely seen material from the museum’s collections, this striking, lyrical book puts its controversial subject into the widest possible context.
