Saying Yes by Jacob Sullum
In Defense of Drug Use
A contrarian defense of recreational drug use and liberal drug policy, arguing that many substances can be used responsibly, that criminalization often causes more harm than the drug use itself, and that public policy should prioritize individual liberty, harm reduction, and evidence-based reforms rather than prohibitionist moralizing; using data, anecdotes, and critiques of the war on drugs, the book challenges exaggerated claims about risks and urges decriminalization or regulated legalization to reduce violence, health harms, and government overreach.
