What led you to change your mind?
I'll probably read it next year. I don't have a lot of spare time right now to read and closely analyze a book just for fun.

And as you said it's not published peer-reviewed research, but hopefully you read it so you can give us your opinion.
Understood. You must be back in school. My reading list is so long that I doubt I can finish it before I die. Not that I'm anticipating dying soon -- my list is just that long! If I read it, I'll post my thoughts.

I just listened to an episode of Radiolab that was about the discovery and history of the drug. Really interesting!
