This Is Heroin

More about the book

The 'drug culture' is now so pervasive that it is part of everyday news in the Western world. In this powerful and illuminating new series, we commission a team of journalists to analyse and comment on the major substances that are seen by society as addictive and ultimately bad for our health. Packed with technical information, quotes from experts and users, illustrations to show the effect they have on the body, as well as the symptoms and consequences - whatever the reason for your interest in drugs, these are the books to read.
