Schultes was one of the first scientists to study the hallucinogen use and rituals among indigenous people. His intent for the book is quite clear in his introduction : "A great body of scientific literature has been published about their uses and their effects, but the information is often locked away in technical journals. The interested layman has a right to sound information on which to base his opinions. This book has been written partly to provide that kind of information."
