Shulgin Index Release Announced! (This Summer)

heres some information about what the book contains (from Shulgin) in case anyones interested:

Thanks for your note asking about the status of the Psychedelic Index book. It was recently split in half, one part on the phenethylamine psychedelics and the other on the tryptamine psychedelics. The phenethylamine volume is nearing completion, and should be ready for typesetting and proofing by the end of the year. It is an objective offering of the facts on all phenethylamines that are known to be psychedelic, that have been tried but not found to be, or that have structures that are so closely related that they should be tried someday. There is a gathering of the chemistry, syntheses, history, natural sources, chemical properties, biochemistry, pharmacology, human activity, legal status, and every fact, either positive or negative, is documented by a literature reference that establishes its authenticity. At the moment there are about 2000 compounds in this first part and it looks as if it will run about 2000 pages. It will be equally valuable to the curious chemist and the DEA.

I am unsure when the second part will be done. I hope I have the energy to complete it in reasonable time.

We will see how it goes.

Are you in the wrong forum?

Or you truly believe that he's been waiting all these years doing nothing just to release an entirely rehashed version of pihkal and tihkal? To what end? Make money to pay for his funeral when that day comes? I can't see why you'd think this isn't a big deal unless you think it's a money grubbing exercise, which would in fact be retarded.

Clearly it will contain at least SOME new chemicals. Fuck knows what he's ACTUALLY been doing. Why the hell do you think we want the book?

QFT. totally agree
 
Does anyone know if there is any non-strictly-chemistry- part of the book? Like, perhaps some qualitative comments, or like the history/story told in Phikal and Thikal?

I will buy the book regardless
