This is a book about drugs in America that isn't just, "legalize it". It gets into how class has been the dividing line between drugs that were considered harmless/licit vs dangerous/illicit. It also spends a lot of time on the root causes of drug use, the ways that life in modern capitalism has made us use drugs more and in worse ways. It also gets into the ways that the west has controlled both licit and illicit drug flows throughout the world.

I really enjoyed it. If anyone wants the ebook, I have a drm-free copy to share, pm me.
