Resumen del Libro

Drug abuse and addiction are pervasive problems that have plagued humankind throughout the millennia—current times being no exception. Many personalized accounts of such activities fill the literature, while the biomedical community continually generates copious amounts of information on the subject. Yet, few authors have provided us with a philosophical examination of this dilemma. This book seeks to help fill this void—as it was written to examine the psychosocial forces at work underlying this problem. Coupled to a cursory coverage of some of the biological aspects of addiction, this text looks at the human condition and focuses upon the day-to-day challenges facing substance abusers, and their effects upon society. Calling upon the collective wisdom of our forefathers and foremothers, combined with our own introspection, solutions for breaking the chains of chemical bondage, and suggestions for living and staying clean are provided. Between our own common sense and that of those who came before us, and a careful [and honest] reflection on the subject, this book optimistically supplies us with the tools necessary for achieving this goal—that we might become the persons we were meant to be. Further, this text helps those affected by the actions of substance abusers, and society at large, form a more realistic understanding of this devastating problem.
