"Cohen has synthesized the history and physiology of MDMA, 'Ecstasy,' and come up with a fascinating and compelling story. This book is devoid of the usual bias and presents rather the fascinating and intriguing story that surrounds Ecstasy. It combines a good story with what is known of the science of the drug."
