Description

The essential guide to how drugs affect the body and behaviour

This fully updated, no-judgment book includes the up-to-the-moment discoveries about drugs and drug use, including new information on the opioid crisis, vaping, psychedelic therapy, cannabinoids and the science of addiction. Buzzed surveys drugs from caffeine to ketamine to reveal how they impact the body, the different effects they produce and the circumstances in which they can be deadly. In an environment rife with myth and misinformation, this book is a must-read for anyone seeking the facts on our ever-changing drug landscape.
