Reviews
The textbook is perhaps one of the most comprehensive resources on drugs and drug policies, with a broad and in-depth range of controversy, psychotropic effects, prevention and treatment efforts, and theory. The content of each chapter is excellent and robust., This book is written in a way that draws students. This book is an amazing comparison and history of drugs that excludes the governmental propaganda and its bogus studies that the government puts out to scare the American population against drug use while showing the real reasons that the government wanted to keep these drugs illegal and now unmarketable to the general population because of the psychological effects., What this book does effectively is it develops the historical understanding of where we are today with drug policy., What this book does effectively is it develops the historical understanding of where we are today with drug policy. -- John Boman * Reviews * The textbook is perhaps one of the most comprehensive resources on drugs and drug policies, with a broad and in-depth range of controversy, psychotropic effects, prevention and treatment efforts, and theory.
