Part autobiography, part metaphysical guidebook, part cookbook – psychedelic biochemistry and sexual chemistry.
Price includes postage & packaging.
Through PiHKAL (and later TiHKAL), Shulgin sought to ensure that his discoveries would escape the limits of professional research labs and find their way to the public; a goal consistent with his stated beliefs that psychedelic drugs can be valuable tools for self-exploration. The MDMA ("Ecstasy") synthesis published in PiHKAL remains one of the most common clandestine methods to this day. Many countries banned the major ones such as 2C-B, 2C-T-2, and 2C-T-7. In the United Kingdom, most of the drugs in PiHKAL are illegal.
