No todas las drogas son iguales

The existence of drugs and how we should live with them affects us all: parents, teachers, consumers... anyone who has ever taken a painkiller or had a glass of wine. Renowned neuropsychopharmacologist David Nutt offers a bold look at the complex interplay between drugs and modern society in this essential book that shatters some myths ingrained in popular Western culture and answers fundamental questions that few dare to address. What opportunities are we missing by limiting research into substances like hallucinogenic mushrooms, LSD and cannabis? Could these drugs be key to developing revolutionary treatments? Diving into a range of topics from addiction and addiction-prone personalities to the therapeutic potential of cannabis for epilepsy, Nutt sheds light on the current opioid crisis and critically assesses the risks associated with vaping. His research has garnered international support and has successfully reduced drug-related harms through the introduction of evidence-based policies. Despite progress, the subject remains taboo in the midst of the 21st century.
