In Harvard's Quixotic Pursuit of a New Science, Patrick L. Schmidt tells the little-known story of how some of the most renowned social scientists of the twentieth century struggled to elevate their emerging disciplines of cultural anthropology, sociology, and social and clinical psychology. Scorned and marginalized in their respective departments in the 1930s for pursuing the controversial theories of Freud and Jung, they persuaded Harvard to establish a new department, promising to create an interdisciplinary science that would surpass in importance Harvard's “big three” disciplines of economics, government, and history. Although the Department of Social Relations failed to achieve this audacious goal, it nonetheless attracted an outstanding faculty, produced important scholarly work and trained many notable graduates. At times, it was a wild ride. Some faculty became notorious for their questionable research: Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert (reborn as Ram Dass) gave the psychedelic drug psilocybin to students, while Henry Murray traumatized undergraduate Theodore Kaczynski (later the Unabomber) in a three-year-long experiment. Central to the story is the obsessive quest of legendary sociologist Talcott Parsons for a single theory unifying the social sciences– the white whale to his Captain Ahab. All in all, Schmidt's lively narrative is an instructive tale of academic infighting, hubris, and scandal.For more episodes of Psychadelic Radio head to www.CannabisRadio.com

The majority of this abuse was deeply suppressed, which in turn caused intense levels of anxiety, depression, insomnia, and rage.As her life progressed and the energy of the experience was not digested or dealt with, chronic sickness developed in her body, particularly in her mid to late 30s. Ehlers Danelos, Rheumatoid Arthritis, IBS, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, hypoglycemia, Loose Ligaments, severe insomnia, severe inflammation, severe lifelong parasitic infections, severe PTSD, and lifelong chronic nailbiting were among the autoimmune illnesses Maegen was diagnosed with. She went on searching for healing for over 30 years, spending hundreds of thousands on Western Doctors that did absolutely nothing for her, time and time again. Also, when she was 15, she was required to receive a round of vaccines as her family was moving to Japan, and it was government-mandated.

So we ask, what other evolutions of the vaporizer designs and technologies have you seen?On the other hand, there's the oil, as we mentioned, and we saw a health crisis hit our industry in 2019 and published a white paper on the vaping crisis.
