Is it pure coincidence that this came out shortly ahead of the enantiomer of ketamine being recycled by big pharma and rubber stamped by the FDA as an incredibly expensive new treatment for depression? For the air-cover a book like this provides such shenanigans, you'd at least hope the author would get flown out to some company retreats in sunny locales and pull down a nice speaker's fee for his trouble.

I vote for pure coincidence.
Although Pollan mentions ketamine in passing, it does not figure prominently in the book. It's difficult to imagine anyone reading "How to Change Your Mind" and coming away eager to try ketamine therapy.
