This is an excellent introduction to the subject of drugs, particularly their use throughout history, the types of drugs (both natural and synthetic), and the drug trade. I particularly appreciated his discussion of many types of drugs, including food-based drugs such as sugar, coffee, and tea as well as the more obvious mind-altering drugs such as opium, coca leaf, and cannabis. The annotated notes and useful index make this an outstanding starting point for more in-depth research.
