Hi fellow BLers!
In case anyone's interested, I have a surplus copy of THE HEROIN SOLUTION by Arnold S. Trebach to give away.
It discusses the model of heroin substitution as maintenance in a larger context of how we view addiction to this particular drug, as well as the politics surrounding it, in particular contrasting Britain and the US.
List of chapters :
1. The Enigmatic Epidemic
2. Living until Death
3. Advent, Canonization, Demonization
4. Medical Value : The Modern Evidence
5. The Rolleston Era in Britain
6. The Harrison-Anslinger Era in America
7. Doubt and Uncertainty: Britain Today
8. Modern America : Something Is Wrong
9. A Practical Vision for the Future
It's out of print and copies tend to be rather expensive. So if anyone here is interested in general drug research, harm reduction, issues around heroin specifically, wants the book and can provide a mailbox address (I do NOT want anyone's personal details), I will be happy to send it to you FOR FREE. Doesn't matter which country you live in.
