Modes of Sentience by Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes (Paperback, 204pp, 2021) - Psychedelic Press

Modes of Sentience by philosopher of mind Dr Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes presents an essay collection connecting psychedelic experience with philosophy and the science and medicine psychedelic renaissance. The book focuses on how psychedelic states can illuminate mind and awareness, using analysis of mind in relation to panpsychism, plus metaphysical questions about multiple dimensions of space and time. It frames altered and alternate modes of sentience as subjects that require new philosophical models. Alongside its philosophical aims, the collection positions itself as a toolkit for interpreting consciousness changes, helping readers discern what different modes of sentience might mean in relation to mind theory and metaphysics.
