Autor

Dr Chris Letheby is a Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at The University of Western Australia (UWA). His areas of specialization are philosophy of mind and philosophy of cognitive science. His research to date has focused mainly on the use of classic psychedelic drugs in neuroscience and psychiatry. In several articles and a book, he has argued that a traditional conception of psychedelics as agents of insight and spirituality can be reconciled with naturalism, the philosophical position that the natural world is all there is. His monograph Philosophy of Psychedelics was published in 2021 by Oxford University Press. Dr Philip Gerrans is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Adelaide. His research interest is the relationship between philosophy and cognitive neuropsychiatry. He has written on developmental disorders, emotions, delusions and disorders of self-awareness.
