Re: Requested book reviews
I am currently reading the White Book by Ken Mansfield, but now I am really interested in reading - Cocaine Politics.

I'll hit up the local bookstore this week, and if successful have a review up this month

Harm Reduction: Pragmatic Strategies for Managing High-Risk Behaviors by G. Alan Marlatt

Drug War Heresies: Learning from Other Vices, Times, and Places (RAND Studies in Policy Analysis) by Robert J. MacCoun and Peter Reuter



I wouldn't mind reviews of those books if someone had read them / was going to and would be willing to write one up.

Re: Requested book reviews
I'm currently reading Beyond the Brain: Birth, Death And Transcendence In Psychotherapy by Grof, and will review immediately upon finish. I've also read Marijuana Medicine by Christian Rätsch and can review it tonight or tomorrow. Richard Alpert/Ram Dass's Be Here Now is one of my most treasured possessions, and I will write a review when I feel I can really summate all its complexities.

UPDATE: I just posted a review of Rätsch's Marijuana Medicine. Enjoy!

UPDATE: Posting review of Grof's Beyond the Brain right now.

UPDATE: Currently working on LSD Psychotherapy by Grof, will post review soon

Question place your Book review requests here
Taking requests for book reviews.. If you have a drug based book you would like to have reviewd, please tell me. I love to read, as long as the material is readable and shouldnt be marketed as a sleep aid. Can knock a good book of in a few day if that. So all suggestions will be taken. Also swim already has lots of books to write reviews about just got to get to them, in storage far far away. Im good with the reading part just dont know very much about writing the reviews part if anyone has any advice or maybe a outline it would be helpful.
