Description
Jonathan Ott.
Writer, phytochemist, and ethnopharmacognosist (a word coined to describe his own profession).
He currently devotes himself to literature; he has written thirteen books, among them: Pharmacotheon:
Entheogenic Drugs, Their Botanical Sources and History [1993, 1996]; Ayahuasca Analogues:
Pangeic Entheogens [1994, 1995, 2006]; Pharmacophilia, or Natural Paradises [1997, 1998];
Shamanic Snuffs or Entheogenic Errhines [2001; with a forthcoming edition in
[in Spanish]; and Coca und Kokain [in German, with Christian Rätsch, 2003; partial versions in Spanish and English forthcoming]. His most recent book (and second literary work) is Mute Words. Silent Spectres of Speech / Sigil–Skeletons of Sound: The Ecstasy of Speech (still unpublished: it will eventually be written in Spanish as well; soon to be published in both languages). He is working on (a second volume for Pharmacophilia): Pharmacomania, or Mr. Jekyll and Dr. Hyde: The Literary Creation of “Addicts” and “Alcoholics” (which will be released soon in Spanish and English: the former as part of a series of his books in deluxe editions). He also plans to publish seven titles (both in Spanish and English) as e-books.
