Hello fellow nexians, So, I have emailed Snu and he is interested in releasing a pdf version of his book but, doesn't seem sure. So I think anyone who would be interested in purchasing one should post here, and if we get enough people to show interest I will email him a link to this thread. For those who don't know the book appears to be one of, if not the most comprehensive source on plant entheogens. Erowid library: Garden of Eden

I was unaware of this book but now I'm very interested indeed!
|
|
|
Yes Snu, I`d love this as a pdf too, would happily pay for download as soon as I have some cash
|
|
|
I'd prefer a Kindle version. EPUB second, and PDF a distant third. Even though Amazon takes 30% off the top, authors make much more because of greater exposure.

|
YES!!!! Please release a PDF, Snu!!
|
|
|
yes, please. That would be awesome  “How long will this last, this delicious feeling of being alive, of having penetrated the veil which hides beauty and the wonders of celestial vistas? It doesn't matter, as there can be nothing but gratitude for even a glimpse of what exists for those who can become open to it.”

..Snu secretly browses the Nexus from time to time (that's why i have to have all my references together in the acacia thread  ) ..i'll also let him know about this thread...i don't think he's made up his mind what he's doing about a second edition vs pdf, but this will add fuel to the decision i'm sure..

I mean second edition would be great too, I just want to get my hands on the information and I've got cash money

I would absolutely love to have either a pdf or book and would be happy to pay for it. wap + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- DMT Nexus Research ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- + ---- +

I emailed Snu previously about this, his reply was: "It's likely to be years before another print edition emerges" I would definitely get the PDF version in that case.

i would love any version of this book. if he doesnt end up releasing a pdf, then i'll probably just buy the actual book anyways I died a mineral, and became a plant. I died a plant and rose an animal. I died an animal and I became human. Then why fear disappearance through death? Next time I shall die, Bring forth wings and feathers like angels; After that, soaring higher than angels-- What you cannot imagine, I shall be that.
Any speakings written are the purely fictional ramblings of an illiterate grande taco, and are false in the face of truth when judged by the all-father. They are in no way real.

It was a limited run of 500 copies. Wonderful book... I'm surprised it didn't sell quicker. I don't think you'll find a finer reference on psychoactive plants. Love my hard copy, but for the right price I would like a pdf too. The trouble with pdfs is you can't leaf through them. The trouble with books is their lack of a ctrl-f function. Maybe Snu could test the winds with a crowdfunding campaign for a second print run? That way he could both establish whether there's a market for it and cover the upfront costs at the same time.

Yes, a pdf version would be awesome!
|
|
|
It would be good I have tried to acquire this book before but had no luck.

+1 for pdf copy...a second print run would be awesome if it could be crowdfunded or done in a way to minimize personal layout by Snu. Thanks for the things you do, oh Snu A pdf seems to good to be true Perhaps we could help with crowdsourcing too Hardcopy is great, but digital'll do Wiki • Attitude • FAQThe Nexian • Nexus Research • The OHTIn New York, we wrote the legal number on our arms in marker...To call a lawyer if we were arrested. In Istanbul, People wrote their blood types on their arms. I hear in Egypt, They just write Their names. גם זה יעבור

I asked Snu all these questions a year or two ago when I got my copy of GoE, and he was very reluctant even then to pursue an electronic format. He is afterall at heart a plant guy not a publishing guy and I think getting the first edition to print must have been a huge pain. But I'll throw in my two cent's worth: Snu if you are reading this I'll buy an e-version as an adjunct to my hard copy. Heck I might buy a couple as gifts for friends! I already asked Alice.
