Books about psychedelics

Anyone got a good book about psychedelics (preferably LSD) that you'd recommend?
I'm currently in the middle of reading both The Brotherhood of Eternal Love From flower power to hippie mafia: The history of the LSD counterculture and The Electric Kool-Aide Acid Test. Since I'm obsessed with acid these are easily the most interesting books I've ever read. I've also heard that Ram Das has written some good books about LSD. Got any recommendations?

'Acid Dreams' by Martin Lee.
I'm in the middle of a book called Prime Green: Remembering the sixties and it's pretty awesome.
I also just started reading Smoke and Mirrors: The War on Drugs and the Politics of Failure and from what I've read so far I think everyone should read this book.

My favorite is "Storming Heaven: LSD And The American Dream" by Jay Stevens.

If only I had a way to give you a copy of Ram Dass' "Be Here Now" (although you can download it.. search for "Be Here Now" on here)...

Looks like I've got a lot of reading to do. 
I'd never be able to read a whole book off of a computer screen but I'll be able to preview them and see if they're worth buying. I guess I could just print them out too.
