No, these are pharmaceutics and medicinal chemistry texts with specific, step by step instructions for the extraction, purification, and manufacture of drugs. Things like the extraction of morphine and synthesis to heroin and instructions for the manufacture of ecstasy.
If the distribution of the whereabouts of a pirate copy is illegal, then instructions on how to manufacture illegal drugs is surely illegal too.
