This book makes it onto the 'must have' list.
It is a comprehensive and informed book that will tell you everything that you need to know about each subgroup of drugs. Different to most books, it covers not only technical aspects of drugs but quality of sensations produced, cost on the street, histories, potential for polydrug use, sociological impact etc.
If you are approaching this book from the 'drugs do nothing but harm' camp then this will be uncomfortable though enlightening reading. The holistic approach should help workers reframe their concept of addiction in terms of the client's potential rewards from drug use.
If buying 2nd hand be sure to get as up to date a version as possible.
