This Is Your Mind on Plants by Michael Pollan

funny informative lighthearted reflective medium-paced

4.25

 An interesting pop-science deep dive turned memoir into the history and cultural importance of three plants and their psychoactive chemicals, and the author's experience with them. I enjoyed how he structured the book, broke down the specifics of each chemical, and committed to describing a first person experience with each. There was a certain journalistic conviction to the book that I found satisfying.
