Confessions of a Dope Dealer Sheldon Norberg $ 45
Confessions of a Dope Dealer offers fascinating insights into the complex web of ambiguities and hypocrisies that make up America's drug culture. Norberg's story, at times hilarious, at times ruefully ironic, details the misadventures and challenges faced by a young person trying to find a way to learn from mind-expanding substances, while growing up in a society fixated on an ignorantly simplistic prohibitionist mind-set. [2005, soft cover, *Signed* by Author]
The Psychedelic Reader Leary, Metzner, & Weil $ 45
The Psychedelic Reader collects the very best writing from the dawn of the psychedelic era. Luminaries such as Alan Watts, Timothy Leary, Sir Julian Huxley, and Ralph Metzner contribute insights on subjects as fascinating as "Botanical Sources of New World Narcotics" and as controversial as "The Treatment of Frigidity with LSD and Ritalin". (Back Cover) [2007, soft cover]

The second half is a ground breaking encyclopedic guide to 179 Phenethylamines (such as MDMA/Ecstasy, 2C-B, 2C-T-7, and DOB) focused on chemistry and sysnthesis, but also including first hand reports for most subtances.

Psychedelics Encyclopedia Stafford $ 75
