Hydroponic Heroin: How to Grow Opium Poppies Without Soil Book

A fantastic book, well written and researched. This book exposes the hypocrisy, corruption and utter ignorance that permeates all aspects related to drugs, focusing on the biggest taboo of all, heroin and junkies. It dives deep into the history of it's pharmaceutical origins, it explains how easily and effectively people's prejudices and fears were shifted onto the drug addict as it has been done to any minority before. People often forget the human aspect behind the labels put on the one discriminated and typified such labeling, I think for that reason alone is a great book, and an important one for anyone who's interested in history in general to read, regardless of what experience or lack there of the reader may have with addiction or drugs. I could expand and tell you how tis book makes many arguments I agree with, others I'm in the fence about and others I absolutely is agree with the author on, but if you are curious about it, that would be spoiling he journey really or you. I see this in many people's "to read" lists, do read it. It's not a long book and at the very least you'll have learned something from it whichever way you look at it!
