AS a follow up to Dr Cambel's video yesterday, this is the video I made explaining my experience with LDN when I published the book.
This is the blurb from the back cover:
Diagnosed with Progressive Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis, Joseph Wouk, youngest son of novelist Herman Wouk refuses to accept the doctor’s opinion that there is nothing more to be done for his medical condition. He plans to go to the Amazon to try to cure himself with a Shaman’s ayahuasca ceremony.
The book begins as a journal entitled, PLACEBO – A Rationalist Seeks a Miracle Cure. Wouk, a hardened western rationalist has no patience for spooks or spirits or any other new age wishful thinking. His plan is to try to delude himself with psychedelics into thinking he is cured - Thereby activating the placebo effect to cure himself for real.
He covers all the bases: From Buddhism to Judaism. From quantum physics to Gödel’s incompleteness theorem. From alternative medicine to the Metaphysics of Quality.

Can't re-watch it again
I was 13-14 when I watched this movie. It's a long movie if I recall it correctly. I was so moved by it's theme, so I watched it all. I had strong feelings of sadness and sympathy towards little robot David that wanted to be a real child and to have a mom to love him. And that little bear ... I cried during some scenes. I don't ...
