Review
Snow's new book Amphetamine Syntheses is an excellent volley filled with facts, testimony, history and of course lots of chemistry. I found the book quite readable, easy to understand, and noteworthy so far as presenting the overlooked position of the independent neuroscientist and his world. I suspect you will see this book being used by a lot of lawyers, forensic chemists, social scientists and drug philosophers looking for some truth, facts, sanity and common-sense - all collected in one spot. -- Psychedelics ReImagined, Thomas Lyttle; Autonomedia 1998
