Import USA Paperback edition book

    Disco biscuits, happy pills, doves, wobbly eggs, burgers, X, Adam, e, ecstasy-however you refer to it, MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine) has been a life-changing force, for both good and bad, in millions of people’s lives. Not since LSD and cannabis in the ’60s has a drug acted as such a profound social and cultural catalyst. Ecstasy changed clubbing, music, fashion, design-and overall society-forever. e, the incredibly strange history of ecstasy examines every aspect of MDMA, from its creation in a German lab just before World War I and its use as a psychotherapy tool in the ’70s, to its ultimate explosion on the US and UK dance scene. This visually stunning book features more than 200 photographs and illustrations-including an extensive catalogue of the most popular, unusual, and fascinating ecstasy pills-along with listings of what they contained and details about their history and cultural significance.
