didn't even need it
I bought this for cheap and I thought I would use it in my class but it turns out that the teacher had the info online and it was easy to get a good grade without the book.
Good overview ( nicho163 )
The book has good general information about the affects of different drugs on the brain and body, and attempts to address some of the social controversies surrounding various drugs. I wish it had more information on the history of drug legislation in the US and the sociocultural context of those decisions.
A great overview for undergraduates ( earleyw )
I use this text in my undergraduate course 'Drugs and HumanBehavior' at USC. The students like it. The pictures are great. Everything's explained in clear language. The references are up to date, chapters are well organized, and the reviews are comprehensive.
