Reviews
"Documented with wit and humility... A Really Good Day delivers a mind-bending read." --Leigh Haber, O Magazine's " 10 Titles to Pick Up Now" "Relentlessly honest and surprisingly funny... Although hers was a journey few will take, A Really Good Day reads almost like an Everywoman's experience, because Waldman's fears and reactions are so commonplace. She is so likable in her flaws and her determination that it's a relief to learn that the microdoses (or possibly her therapy sessions or maybe even a placebo effect, she acknowledges) allowed enough of a head shift that her life has become easier, lighter. She had the courage, the credentials and the insight to make this journey and tell us about it. They all add up to a fine read." --Sharon Peters, USA Today "Sensible and important... [written] with force and clarity... Succeeds in establishing that LSD and other psychedelics should be among the menu of pharmaceutical options available in America."-- Nick Romeo, the Chicago Tribune "An intriguing and thorough look at the therapeutic possibilities of an illegal drug... Her book is an engaging and deeply researched primer on a taboo subject and a compelling case for more research on it." -- Nora Krug, The Washington Post "A wildly brilliant, radically candid, and rigorous daybook of [Waldman's] life-changing, last-resort journey." --Lisa Shea, Elle "Waldman will capture you with genuinely brave and human moments... She makes a persuasive case for the therapeutic use of psychedelics ... In normalizing the conversation about LSD, she may one day help others feel normal." --Jennifer Senior, The New York Times "Waldman's fascinating account of her radical month-long experiment with taking tiny doses of LSD.... The pages toggle between history and personal, with hilarious diary entries that read like Bridget Jones adapted for the neurotic Northern Californian." --Lauren Mechling, Vogue "Smart, outspoken, provoking, and funny... Poignant, sometimes hilarious... Waldman calls for renewed research and drug-law reform in this informative, candid, altogether irresistible quest." --Donna Seaman, Booklist "Honest and intelligent... A humane, well-reasoned, and absolutely necessary argument for a major overhaul of America's drug policy. The book triumphantly coheres in a lucid manifesto of how and why the racist, immoral undertaking called the War on Drugs has failed... Passionate, persuasive." --Claire Vaye Watkins, The New Republic, "Novelist and essayist Waldman ( Bad Mother )--mother of four, married to another high-profile writer (Michael Chabon)--worked as a federal public defender and taught at prestigious law schools. After struggling with mood swings and bouts of depression, Waldman becomes a ''self-study psychedelic researcher,'' taking small doses of LSD on repeating three-day cycles and discovers plenty to exonerate the illicit substance... A highly engaging combination of research and self-discovery, laced with some endearingly honest comic moments. She is exactly the sort of sensible, middle-aged, switched-on, spontaneous woman whom any reader would enjoy taking a trip with." - Publisher''s Weekly, starred review "It''s a simple, delightful premise: a journal of microdosing. Then Waldman brings so much to the project that it turns into something else, something far more beguiling. Her marriage, her family, her formidable neuroses, her years as a lawyer and a law professor, her skills as a journalist, her stand-up comic''s timing, her harrowing gift for self-knowledge--all of these become the main strengths and true subjects of her study. The result is constantly entertaining, slyly educational, and surprisingly moving. You end up wishing desperately for her radical honesty to be rewarded with a greater ration of contentment. I don''t know another writer like her." --William Finnegan, author of Barbarian Days, Cold New World, and A Complicated War "In this raw, honest, and ultimately hopeful journey, Waldman takes us deep into the forest of her mind and moods. The success of her story with microdosing reminds the medical and legal communities how much still remains to be understand about the brain." --Dr. David Eagleman, neuroscientist, author, creator of the PBS series The Brain "Ignoring decades of drug war propaganda, Ayelet Waldman bravely chose to take back her psyche using forbidden medicine. The result is this candid and fearless mental travelogue. Funny, wise, surprising, and all too human, this book about peering through the veil of self may just - if you dare to let it - drive you sane." --Walter Kirn, author of Up in the Air "Crisp, hilarious, and weirdly optimistic, Ayelet Waldman breaks from the convention of mental health memoir the way an acid head breaks from reality. At its core this is a deeply romantic story about the redemptive power of marriage, surprising and easy to celebrate." --Jenni Konner, showrunner and executive producer of Girls , co-founder of Lenny Letter "A hilarious, intriguing, and thoroughly persuasive account of how a middle-aged mother of four, a writer and lawyer terrified of drugs, found life-changing serenity by microdosing with LSD. It seems that LSD can not only make walls breathe and worlds become one, but turn grouchy, yelling people into happy, reasonable ones. Ayelet Waldman''s terrific book holds out hope to the mood-afflicted everywhere that there is a solution to their misery without the side-effects of anti-depressants--a solution that doesn''t produce mystical revelations but just a really good day. LSD is illegal, but fortunately this book isn''t, and it has much the same effect." --Larissa MacFarquhar, author of Strangers Drowning "Ayelet Waldman is fearless, which is our good fortune and sometimes hers. That boldness led to her fruitful adventures in mind-altering substances recounted here. Subtly mind-altering; this is a book about sub-hallucinatory microdoses of LSD but also about marriage and family life, insomnia, addiction, her past as a defense attorney, our insane drug laws, moods and dispositions and afflictions, and a lot of other stuff braided into an informative, amusing, nonchalantly incendiary narrative. You could call this book her war on the war on drugs, but it''s so much more, and so much more funny." --Rebecca Solnit, author of A Field Guide to Getting Lost , "Documented with wit and humility... A Really Good Day delivers a mind-bending read." --Leigh Haber, O Magazine's " 10 Titles to Pick Up Now" "An intriguing and thorough look at the therapeutic possibilities of an illegal drug... Her book is an engaging and deeply researched primer on a taboo subject and a compelling case for more research on it." -- Nora Krug, The Washington Post "A wildly brilliant, radically candid, and rigorous daybook of [Waldman's] life-changing, last-resort journey." --Lisa Shea, Elle "Waldman will capture you with genuinely brave and human moments... She makes a persuasive case for the therapeutic use of psychedelics ... In normalizing the conversation about LSD, she may one day help others feel normal." --Jennifer Senior, The New York Times "Waldman's fascinating account of her radical month-long experiment with taking tiny doses of LSD....

Synopsis
The true story of how a renowned writer's struggle with mood storms led her to try a remedy as drastic as it is forbidden: microdoses of LSD. Her revealing, fascinating journey provides a window into one family and the complex world of a once-infamous drug seen through new eyes. When a small vial arrives in her mailbox from "Lewis Carroll," Ayelet Waldman is at a low point. Her moods have become intolerably severe; she has tried nearly every medication possible; her husband and children are suffering with her. So she opens the vial, places two drops on her tongue, and joins the ranks of an underground but increasingly vocal group of scientists and civilians successfully using therapeutic microdoses of LSD. As Waldman charts her experience over the course of a month--bursts of productivity, sleepless nights, a newfound sense of equanimity--she also explores the history and mythology of LSD, the cutting-edge research into the drug, and the byzantine policies that control it. Drawing on her experience as a federal public defender, and as the mother of teenagers, and her research into the therapeutic value of psychedelics, Waldman has produced a book that is eye-opening, often hilarious, and utterly enthralling.

- v***v (2060)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
- 2***j (113)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
