5.0 out of 5 stars Heroin prescription in the US!, August 24, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Opium Problem (Patterson Smith Reprint Series in Criminology, Law Enforcement, and Social Problems. Publication, No. 115) (Hardcover)
Absolute stunning book on the substitution clinics for addicts in the US, which were stopped by 1923. In these clinics street drugs were replaced by medically prescribed pure pharmaceutical drugs and the yielded effects were the same as in the heroin trials of the 1990ies: reduced criminality, better health of the adicts and social integration, resulting in reduced social costs. You can find all the topics of a modern drugpolicy based on harm reduction and public health in this historical book and also how this informed policy was replaced by the still continuing drugpolicy of today based on moral issues and not on science.
