The Shulgin Index, Volume One: Psychedelic Phenethylamines and Related Compounds is a 2011 book written by Alexander Shulgin, Tania Manning, and Paul F. Daley and published by Transform Press.[1][2][3] It followed the earlier books PiHKAL: A Chemical Love Story (1991) and TiHKAL: The Continuation (1997) by Shulgin and his wife Ann Shulgin.[1][2][4][5] The book is about psychedelic substituted phenethylamines and related compounds and their chemistry and pharmacology.[1][2][3] It discusses 126 main compounds from this family as well as 1,300 compounds discussed in total.[1][3]

A second volume on substituted tryptamines was being prepared but was never completed due to Shulgin's death in 2014.[1][6][7] According to the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) in 2014 however, the second volume would be finished at some point in the near future.[7]

ON JUNE 2, 2014, AT THE age of 88, pioneering psychedelic researcher Alexander "Sasha" Shulgin died surrounded by friends and family at his home in Lafayette, California. [...] In 2011, his life's work was published in The Shulgin Index, Volume 1: Psychedelic Phenethylamines and Related Compounds. While the first volume contains over 1,300 compounds, there is more to come. The Shulgin Index, Volume 2 will be published in the near future. Sasha understood that the exploration of novel psychoactive compounds—and ways to use them—would not be completed in his lifetime, so he preserved his research in these volumes for future generations.
