1. Marijuana Reconsidered
A rigorous, evidence-based reassessment arguing that cannabis is far less dangerous than widely portrayed, this book reviews scientific and medical literature, presents case histories of therapeutic and recreational use, debunks myths about addiction and long-term harm, and criticizes the social and legal consequences of prohibition while urging more humane, rational drug policies such as decriminalization and further research into potential medical benefits.
