First part and last part of book were very good, but I did not gain much from the middle part. The first chapter was VERY enlightening though, and there seems to be a pretty helpful suggested reading list at the end of the book so I will have to check those books out soon.

This book has been on my "to read" list for at least a year, and I had no idea it was so short. I picked it up this afternoon from the library and was able to read it over coffee. It gives a pretty good explanation of psychedelic adventures, including what to expect, how to prepare for them, the reason behind them, etc. It was very cool to read this from Leary's perspective, but a lot of it was information I already know from my research. I would suggest it to anybody though, as it is a quick read and I could see it being very helpful to someone who doesn't know much about entheogens.

Seems like me and Isilwar are having a book battle here or something. Is anyone else reading?

2. Caro Michele, Natalia Ginzburg

12. Meditation for Dummies, Stephan Bodian, 348 pg.
13. Eight Steps to Enlightenment: Awakening the Buddha Within, Lama Surya Das, 395 pg.
14. Schrodinger's Cat Trilogy, Robert Anton Wilson, 545 pg.
15. The Meditative Mind, Daniel Goleman, 214 pg.
16. Your Brain Is God, Timothy Leary, 105 pg.
17. TiHKAL: The Continuation, Ann and Alexander Shulgin, 804 pg.
Wow. I can't put into words my appreciation for this book. The title stands for Tryptamines I Have Known And Loved and it is the sequel to the same authors' PiHKAL: Phenethylmines I Have Known And Loved. Alexander Shulgin is one of the leading psychopharmacological chemists in the world, having developed multitudes of drugs, including MDMA and 2C-B (and related chemical structures) among others. His account of the chemistry and political background behind his work in TiHKAL is coupled with his wife Ann's experiences being married to him. It is very interesting to get both accounts in one book. I could go on forever about this book but I will leave you by saying that if you are interested at all in tryptamines, check out this book. I'm going to have to buy PiHKAL because I couldn't get it through my interlibrary loan program, the way I received TiHKAL. But I am sure it will be more than worth it, as most reviewers I have seen have rated PiHKAL much higher. Highly recommended.

Really nice book. It's (I don't know if it's a right name) a political fiction. It's 20 years after the 2nd World War and the thing is that Germany and Japan won the war. Dick showed this alternate world pretty damn good. The only thing I didn't like about this book is its ending. I don't get it at all.

Choke is in my top 2 favourite books of all time (along with American Psycho). It's so amazing. I don't understand what you mean about it not making sense though. It's a shame CP can only write one story over and over, but Choke is definitely the best rendition of that story.
Man in The High Castle is also awesome - probably my third favourite PKD story (after Scanner Darkly and Valis). I don't think you're meant to "get" the ending. He said that it was "open ended" and talked about writing a sequel. Like a lot of PKDs work, it's not really building up to a climax or a conclusion. It's more about the moment I guess.
I've been very slack with my reading lately. I will step up.
