I almost bought the Harvard Psychedelic Club book, but instead bought The Acid Diaries by Christopher Gray.
I believe psychedelics have and can open a door in our mind that leads to deeper understanding physics, philosophy, art, music, and life. 


Kesey was on mescaline when he wrote the first three pages of Cuckoo's Nest and through all the re-edits and revisions all the people made those three pages went never changed. But he did say LSD had the greatest influence on that book.

Crick was on LSD when he realized that DNA had a double helix structure.

Kary Mullis:
Quote:

Mullis details his experiences synthesizing and testing various psychedelic amphetamines and a difficult trip on DET in his autobiography. In a Q&A interview published in the September, 1994, issue of California Monthly, Mullis said, "Back in the 1960s and early '70s I took plenty of LSD. A lot of people were doing that in Berkeley back then. And I found it to be a mind-opening experience. It was certainly much more important than any courses I ever took."[26] During a symposium held for centenarian Albert Hofmann, "Hofmann revealed that he was told by Nobel-prize-winning chemist Kary Mullis that LSD had helped him develop the polymerase chain reaction that helps amplify specific DNA sequences."[27] Replying to his own postulate during an interview for BBC's Psychedelic Science documentary, "What if I had not taken LSD ever; would I have still invented PCR?" He replied, "I don't know. I doubt it. I seriously doubt it."[28]




He also said:
Quote:

"I could sit on a DNA molecule and watch the polymers go by. I learnt that partly on psychedelic drugs."





Another great example is the LSD taking Burning Man Attendee: Antony Garrett Lisi
He is the man who is responsible for the Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything.

I am going to break here and add some more in another post soon.

I only have a few pages left in Acid Diaries, you have to read it. It's amazing.

A political, philosophical, spiritual book on the history, benefit, and use of LSD and Christopher Gray's weekly experiments with the drug in his 60's.
The book answers your OP quite well.
