Continuación en cierto modo de su otro libro Las puertas de la percepción. En éste pretende imbuir al lector del arrobamiento que ejercen los colores, esculturas, cuadros, el arte en general, en el sujeto. Lo combina con la influencia de las Religiones y de cómo éstas utilizan estos elementos para sumergir al individuo en el misticismo. No es evidente ni mucho menos que se consiga este efecto sin ayuda de los estupefacientes. Un libro curioso aunque algo denso en algunas partes. ( ) Among the most profound and influential explorations of mind-expanding psychadelic drugs ever written, here are two complete classic books—The Doors of Perception and Heaven and Hell—in which Aldous Huxley, author of Brave New World, reveals the mind's remote frontiers and the unmapped areas of human consciousness. This new edition also features an additional essay, "Drugs That Shape Men's Minds," which is now included for the first time. "A genuine spiritual quest. ... Extraordinary." — New York Times (less) ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Inspired by the poetry of William Blake, Heaven and Hell delves into the murky topic of human consciousness through a discussion of religious mystical perception, biochemistry and psychoactive drug experimentation. Heaven and Hell explains how science, art, religion, literature, and psychoactive drugs can expand the reader's everyday view of reality, offering a more profound grasp of the human experience. Like his earlier essay, The Doors of Perception, Aldous Huxley's Heaven and Hell exerted a tremendous influence on the counter-culture movement of the 1960s, inspiring the imaginations of an entire generation of artists and revolutionaries like Jim Morrison and Jackson Pollack.
