Sommario/riassunto

This book is the culmination of five years of debate among distinguished scholars in law, public policy, medicine, and biopsychology, about the most difficult questions in drug policy and the study of addictions. Do drug addicts have an illness, or is the addiction under their control? Should they be treated as patients or as



criminals? Challenging the conventional wisdom, the authors show that these standard dichotomies are false.
