Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
Rosenthal and Kubby offer crisp, well-reasoned argument for legalizing marijuana, obviously suffering none of the short-term memory loss said to afflict the pothead as they proceed and never, never letting a sentence trail off in an ellipsis. They contend that most of the evidence against marijuana is overblown, misinterpreted, or false and that the war on the weed has harmed society more than the drug itself ever could. After decades of government-sponsored antipot propaganda, and with California passing a ballot initiative to legalize marijuana for medical applications, this is a timely screed. Selected Doonesbury strips illustrate main points and lighten the overall mood appropriately, and an intensive notes section provides readers with sources for further research as well as documentation. Mike Tribby

Kurzbeschreibung
Marijuana hit mainstream America over 30 years ago and has been accepted by a large segment of society ever since. Despite government efforts to isolate and eliminate its use, it is more popular now than ever. Why Marijuana Should Be Legal analyzes the effects of marijuana and marijuana laws on society. The book addresses the drug's industrial and medical applications, preserving our Constitutional rights, economic costs, health effects, and sociological aspects. New and updated information includes how state officials are acting against the legalization of marijuana and how U. S. marijuana laws are based on inaccurate and outdated information. In discussing such issues and many more, the book presents clear, documented evidence for all of its conclusions. Also included is an annotated list of organizations that lobby for change of marijuana laws. "Rosenthal and Kubby offer crisp, well-reasoned arguments for legalizing marijuana. "Mike Tribby, Booklist "[A]n important contribution to the current national dialog on moves toward the decriminalization of this controversial drug. "The Midwest Book Review

We really need to take this issue seriously and consider the benefits of legalizing! I'm not a smoker, but have friends and family who are. They are upstanding, conscious, hardworking citizens who don't deserve to have to sneak around. We could alleviate so much financial stife in the US if we would be more open minded about this issue. And of course, the by-products are amazing too. The author has his facts straight and writes in an easy communicative style. Buy one for the republican in your family.

A New Edition of The Classic
20. Mai 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
It's great to see this book out again. The authors make a perfect case for cannabis legalization by explaining established facts about constitutional rights, industrial uses of hemp, and the safety of the drug. They don't get bogged down in hundreds of references and citations, but everything they say has clear empirical support.
