MDMA
"MDMA is *chemically* an amphetamine, but psychologically its what's known as an empathogen-entactogen. There is some amphetamine stimulant quality left, which enhances the empathogenic quality. The empathogenic quality is basically the ability to communicate things to others, and the ability to feel empathy towards others." Erowid.com has the Whole Earth Review's rundown of Ecstasy (you know, 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine), which is useful when one is trying to do some research on the drug.
Also note Alexander Shulgin's book, PIHKAL: A Chemical Love Story, for more background.
