Paperback. Condición: Good. Winner of the PEN / E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award "Moving and inspiring.

Young Carl didn't see the value of school, studying just enough to keep him on the basketball team. Today, he is a cutting-edge neuroscientist--Columbia University's first tenured African American professor in the sciences--whose landmark, controversial research is redefining our understanding of addiction.

His findings shed new light on common ideas about race, poverty, and drugs, and explain why current policies are failing.…
