Daniel Pinchbeck's bestselling 2002 book\\xa0Breaking Open the Head: \\xa0A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism\\xa0had a profound effect on me when I read it in my early twenties. Along with the work of Noam Chomsky and Terence McKenna, Pinchbeck's writing\\xa0definitely shaped the way I interpreted the fallout after 9/11 and the cascade of horror that was the Bush years. Here Pinchbeck shares his thoughts about a wide range of topics, from crop circles and shamanism to climate emergency and apocalypse. His book\\xa0How Soon is Now: From Personal Initiation to Global Transformation\\xa0comes out in early 2017.
