through the proper use of LSD-
documented by medical research
and supported by personal testi-
mony. A positive approach to the
most controversial issue of our time
THE PROBLEM-SOLVING
P. G. STAFFORD and B. H. GOLIGHTLY
Preface by Dr. Humphry Osmond
Director, Bureau of Research in Neurology and Psychiatry
New Jersey Neuropsychiatric Institute, Princeton
Introduction by Dr. Duncan Blewett
Chairman, Department of Psychology

Afterword by Dr. Stanley Krippner

More exciting than the gaudiest psychedelic trip are the dra-
matic, problem-solving breakthroughs documented in this
unique investigation of the positive uses of LSD.
BREAKTHROUGH
-A team of doctors studying the effects of
LSD on severe alcoholics finds rates of cure as high as 50%!
BREAKTHROUGH
-A young college student applies LSD to a
learning situation and teaches himself enough German in one
week to qualify for the second-year course he wants to take!
BREAKTHROUGH
-An American Naval officer, working for
years on a submarine detection device, finds the solution in
ten minutes after approaching the problem through LSD!
BREAKTHROUGH
—
A compulsive gambler is cured of his obses-
sion; a woman tormented by frigidity experiences sexual ful-
fillment for the first time; a confirmed homosexual discovers
the true nature of his sexual drive; a celebrated writer breaks
the creative block that has inhibited his work—each as a
result of the LSD experience!
BREAKTHROUGH
—
In the treatment of mental illness (for
which LSD has been called an ideal tool); in the treatment of
problem children (whom LSD has been able to reach when all
other techniques have failed); in the treatment of psychoso-
matic illness (including unexpected cures for asthmatic and
bronchial conditions)!
BREAKTHROUGH
-In treatment of the terminally ill; in cases
of chronic depression, in situations of marital incompatibility!
BREAKTHROUGH
—
In understanding and faith, in an era when
"God Is Dead" has become a catch phrase and the fabric of
society looks increasingly threadbare!
BREAKTHROUGH
—
In awareness of the special properties of
the most powerful drug known to man; in knowledge of what
it may mean to the individual, and to society—today and in
the years ahead.

My own belief is that . . . these new mind changers
[the psychedelic drugs] will tend in the long run to
deepen the spiritual life. . . . And this revival of reli-
gion will be at the same time a revolution . . . religion
will be transformed into an activity concerned mainly
with experience and intuition—an everyday mysti-
cism underlying and giving significance to everyday
rationality, everyday tasks and duties, everyday
human relationships.
—Aldous Huxley
Collected Essays
I looked at the paper I was to draw on. I was com-
pletely blank. . . . Suddenly I saw the finished project.
I did some quick calculations. . . . It would fit on the
property and not only that . . . it would meet the cost
and income requirements. It was contemporary
architecture with the richness of a cultural heritage. . .
it used history and experience but did not copy it. I
began to draw . . . I worked at a pace I would not
have thought I was capable of. I completed four
sheets of fairly comprehensive sketches. I was not
tired but I was satisfied that I had caught the essence
of the image. . . . It was a magnificent day.

Use

Psychedelic Agents to Fa-
cilitate Creative Problem Solving
We began to study a group of very difficult psycho-
pathic alcoholics. We have now treated sixty of them,
and half are no longer alcoholic after one treatment;
so we do see that this drug has great potential for
changing people.

The Use of LSD in Psychotherapy
The Use of
When I took the drug myself, I found that I was suf-
fering from the delusion that I had been psychoana-
lyzed. I had spent seven and a half years on the
couch and over
$20,000,
and so I thought I had been
psychoanalyzed. But a few sessions with LSD con-
vinced me otherwise.
Those who advocate the drug's use are not, in the
main, after kicks, nor are they interested in anti-
social activity. These advocates, who include intel-
lectuals, professionals, and scientists, claim that the
drug offers great benefits to the individual—rich
inner experience, freedom to be himself, a chance
for further development of his personality, and a
loving rather than a hostile or indifferent attitude
toward other people.
Experiments with LSD have led researchers to believe
that this drug has potentialities in the treatment of
alcoholism, delinquency and various forms of neu-
rosis which far exceed conventional therapeutic tech-
niques. Learning in many instances seems acceler-
ated
under the influence of LSD, and there is growing
evidence that this drug can facilitate creative prob-
lem-solving. . . . LSD and related drugs also show
great promise in helping people to achieve better
sexual and family lives. They remind many of the
importance of spontaneity, intimacy and adventure
in a society becoming increasingly apathetic and
impersonal.
