Blowing Smoke: Rethinking the War on Drugs without Prohibition and Rehab in Bloomington, MN

Blowing Smoke argues that we are losing the drug war because of our devotion to the disease model of substance abuse. That model has become the driving force for our two main strategies in the war: prohibition laws and drug rehab. The book traces the history and science behind each to show how they paradoxically enable drug use.
