Ecstasy: The MDMA Story by Bruce Eisner
Twenty two years ago, I published Ecstasy The MDMA Story. It was the first comprehensive overview of a drug which had been legal until 1985. I was able to use the drug and to observe its effects on different groups of people.
I wrote the book in 1987 and 1988 and it was published in 1989. A second edition was published in 1993. It has sold almost 100,000 copies since then
