eBook version could be much better
Great reference and resource guide. The eBook however is annoying in that it's hard to find any particular page or drug as you can't skip around chapters. The print is also fixed so I had to keep zooming into each page to read the text. I would also note that one experience at one dosage does not give you a complete picture of the effects of a drug, but this is definitely a great starting point and better than anything else out there. Also, the author seems to experience most of the drugs by himself, and I would say that the effects of a drug can be substantially altered in the company of others. For example, if you drank alcohol at home by yourself, you would have a much different experience than if you had drank at a club and danced with friends. Also, the author is trying to be objective and semi-scientific about it, so the descriptions of experiences come across a bit sterile and boring, again pointing out the fact that a lot of drug experience is social and in the case of ancient spiritual drugs, the social setting and guidance is absolutely critical for the true experience.

A must have in every house! Especially non drug-users!
I am not a significant drug user, but I have plenty of people I love who are, and also who are interested in experimenting with more drugs. This book has given me the insight to approach conversations and encourage the people I care about to experiment safely, and also offers tools and information for people of every background, about every drug imaginable, and from an entirely informational point of view! No question about it that this is a lifesaving book that should be in every household, especially non-drug-users!

A Must Have
Every house should have one on hand. The title leads a person to believe they, or someone in their house is a drug user. Nope. A great reference guide for anyone who wants to be knowledgeable about the common “legal” drugs out there. With all the designer drugs plus old drugs newly being abused, literally every home needs something to look at that has real world information, not textbook facts and numbing generic medical terminology.Well laid out, easy to read and understand. Wish I knew about something like this when my child was younger.

Title grammar
Is this a bible about drug users, or a bible for drug users? If the latter, it should be "The Drug User's Bible." Pedantic, yes, but just a note to the author.... The content seems too important to have such a grammatically-wrong title.

No fear-mongering, just information
This book is.......unique. It looks at all the fear-mongering and gut-based policies normally included in drug education and says "nah, I'm gonna just give honest information about how to stay safe and what to expect." Not only has it helped me understand the real risks of some of these drugs in a much more realistic sense, it's re-shaped the way I view alcohol. I am thankful for this book, and fully intend to give it as a gift to anyone I can think of.

A Comprehensive Guide to Safe Drug Use - Essential Reading (5/5)
This book is an absolute game-changer for anyone interested in understanding responsible drug use. The depth of information on harm reduction and personal safety measures is unparalleled. It's not about promoting drug use but about empowering individuals with crucial knowledge to stay safe. A must-read for anyone navigating this complex terrain. Highly recommended.

Buen libro. No diría que es la biblia
El señor se metió de todo. Es una sola persona la que experimento con todas estas substancias a lo largo de su vida y más bien es como una recapitulación, no tanto como una enciclopedia. La mayoría de las substancias solo fueron consumidas una vez, en situaciones muy variables, dosis diferentes y los recuerdos del autor son algo inciertos lo que hace bastante difícil de comparar los efectos de las substancias con precisión. Más bien el libro es bueno para conocer nuevas substancias y darte una vaga idea de que hacen. Aun así lo volvería a comprar, es un pedazo de literatura muy único e interesante. No todos los días lees sobre un señor que consume de todo.

A very interesting read - live vicariously through this guy, learn something.
The book is very well written and is all about safety (safety messages are printed on every single page!). What I found surprising about it is the amount of autobiographical / vernacular stuff that comes up around the authors research, procuring and of course taking all these substances. Each drug is typically a page or two so it makes for a good 5 minute distraction here and there. I can recommend this to anyone and have already sent a couple of copies to friends abroad.
