E FOR ECSTASY

Book Review by: CatherineGallagher     

Original Author: Nicholas Saunders
This book about E (Ecstasy, Adam, MDMA) dispels many of the myths around the drug, which have fueled fears and prevented
truths from being circulated -- both of positive uses, possibilities and experiences with it (including legal use and research in Switzerland, and reports of use before it became illegal elsewhere). The author details various uses: spiritual enlightenment, psychotherapy, use in rituals and artistic expression, empathy with and insight into others (and oneself and relationships), and for fun (especially dancing and at raves). He also gives instructions on the real dangers (primarily overheating -- which one tends not to notice -- and dehydration). He gives personal experiences as well as those of others. This book is on the Banned Books list (in Australia, particularly).
