1.0 out of 5 stars A largely irrelevant, outdated "underground" publication..., March 4, 1999

By A Customer

One of the first and most famous of the "underground" publications dealing with clandestine synthesis of LSD, et al. Largely journal entries that have been copied over verbatim from journal articles. Legal information is extremely outdated and many "recipes" contain dangerous typos a la the Anarchist's Cookbook that will most likely lead to failure of synthesis or death of the chemist if actually attempted.

1.0 out of 5 stars Inaccurate information written by unqualified author, caveat emptor., June 14, 2008

By	Luis Lainez (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've read other material by Michael Valentine Smith (free PDF articles that he's published online) and the information he presents is a mixed bag. Some information is accurate but there also seems to be an equal amount of erroneous data (for the novice psychedelic researcher this will prove frustrating!) Complicating matters further is the lack of evidential references to support his claims. An excellent scientific article written on the topic of psychedelics (with plenty of references but no how-to's to make the drugs) is "Hallucinogens" by David E. Nichols ([...])
If you want to know how to synthesize stuff buy or download (you can find torrents for this) PiHKAL and TiHKAL or check [...]. Best of luck on all future endeavors to all psychonauts around the world :)

5.0 out of 5 stars These other reviews are by government shills, December 23, 2007

By	Robert T Barker (USA) - See all my reviews

There's nothing dangerous or even misrepresented in this text.
These other reviews must be by some folks who don't want you to know the content of this book. DEA agents no doubt. This book was helpful and clear.
