On Being Stoned : A Psychological Study of Marijuana Intoxication

Palo Alto, CA: Science and Behavior Books, 1971. First edition. 8vo; green cloth; black spine titles; dust jacket. xvii, 333pp., with index. Light scattered foxing to textblock top, else near fine in a very good jacket, unclipped ("$7.95"), with shallow chipping at head of spine.

Front jacket flap: "This book describes what people actually feel when they smoke marijuana—the effects on vision and hearing, social interaction and sexuality, perception of time and space, thinking processes and memory, spiritual experiences and ESP, and many other effects." Written by a psychologist, and based on a federally funded study involving "150 experienced marijuana users"; a scholarly study, but with much of interest and entertainment regardless.
