“Johann’s first deep dive book and a really good one. An exploration of drug policy through the ages, different perspectives on addiction, compassionate viewpoints on hopeless cases and more. Johann really doesn’t shy away from research and he’s got endless stories and examples from history to really drive home a very novel and counterintuitive story about drug use, illegality and dependency.”↗

“Three wonderful books I recommend that pertain to drug reform and depression – two issues in our minds this week – and some important connections between them: • Lost Connections by Johann Hari • Chasing the Scream by Johann Hari • How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan”↗
