Book Reviews of Drug Crazy : How We Got into This Mess and How We Can Get Out
Book Review: A well researched, well written work on US drug policy.
Summary: 5 Stars
It is easy to find critiques of US drug policy. The trick is to find one which is readible, credible, and useful. That is what Mike Gray's "Drug Crazy" is. This book will bring anyone, whether new to the topic or an old hand, up to the minute on the origins of the War on Drugs, and why the war has been lost. You'll learn the players, see the historic accidents that lie behind todays delusions, and discover what ideas can help us deal with what has now become two national problems: the effects of abuse of drugs, and the effects of the War on Drugs. I recommend this book highly. Every library, every legislator, and every person concerned with drug policy issues should have a copy.
