Marijuana Nation: One Man's Chronicle of America Getting High: From Vietnam to Legalization - Tapa blanda
Críticas
An astounding first person account of the modern history of America's love-hate relationship with cannabis from four knowing perspectives. Firstly, as a young consumer, then an activist, abstinent researcher and not-so-tacit university professor. From no one else's writings can these unique viewpoints be gained.--Allenn St. Pierre, Executive Director, National Director of the Reform of Marijuana Laws
A terrific book that provides great insights into the complex issue that is cannabis. Professor Roffman's unique experiences with this drug are given voice with his usual thoughtful and engaging style. Roffman is a father of modern cannabis intervention research and his book is a must read.--Professor Jan Copeland, Director, National Cannabis Prevention and Information Center, University of New South Wales
Roger writes a compelling story. No matter what side of the marijuana debate you land on, you can appreciate how he arrived at his opinion on the matter. This is more than an argument for or against the legalization of marijuana, it's a detailed map of his personal journey and evolution on the topic. I have long respected Roger's willingingness to tell the whole story in his work. Reading this book helps me understand the thoughts, tears, steps and intention behind his position.--Frank Couch, LMFTA, CDP, NCACI, Executive Director, The Science And Management of Addictions
Dr. Roffman writes beautifully from multiple perspectives about his 40 year interest in marijuana policy -- the destructive impacts of our drug war on exploring young lives, the political struggles over policy changes, his own experimentation and dependency, and his research on marijuana addiction. A must-read for all seeking a saner approach to recreational drug use.--Robert W. Wood, M.D., Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of Washington
Marijuana Nation was a totally engaging read! It vastly broadened my understanding of the history of marijuana within our culture. I especially appreciated the candidness with which Dr. Roffman described his personal experiences and opinions around marijuana. As a mother who grew up in the 60's and 70's and is now frantic about my teen son's heavy marijuana use, this book has given me a better perspective and knowledge that is helping me deal with his dependence. I think this is a book every parent should read.--Julie Campbell, youth substance abuse prevention activist, Seattle
Reseña del editor
Roger Roffman first discovered marijuana while serving as a US Army officer in Vietnam. From these seemingly innocuous beginnings, Roffman has been fascinated by marijuana, as a researcher, scholar, therapist, activist, and user. Ever since America’s youth first marched in opposition to the war in Vietnam, pot’s popularity has periodically ebbed and surged. Calls for greater, fewer, or no marijuana penalties also have swung on their own pendulum.From lobbying in Washington, to talking to doctors and nurses in oncology wards, and watching his brother struggle with addiction, Roffman has experienced the layered and complex relationship Americans have with marijuana first-hand. With one foot on each side of the fence, at times feeling at odds with both camps, Roffman is on a quest to challenge those who insist we think of marijuana as a weapon of mass destruction, as well as those who would have us see it as a harmless source of pleasure and relief.
