    About this audiobook

    The Cannabis Manifesto is both a call to action and a radical vision of humans' relationship with this healing but controversial plant. Steve DeAngelo, the founder of Harborside Health Center, the world's largest medical-cannabis dispensary, presents a compelling case for cannabis as a wellness catalyst that must be legalized. His view that there is no such thing as recreational cannabis use challenges readers to rethink everything they thought they knew about marijuana.
     
    The Cannabis Manifesto answers essential questions about the plant, using extensive research to fuel a thoughtful discussion about cannabis science and law, as well as its biological, mental, and spiritual effects on human beings. With a cultural critic's eye peering through the lens of social justice, DeAngelo explains how cannabis prohibition has warped our most precious institutions-from the family, to the workplace, to the doctor's office and the courtroom. In calling for a realistic national policy on a substance that has been used by half of all Americans, this essential primer will forever change the way the world thinks about cannabis, its benefits, and the laws governing its use.

      In The Cannabis Manifesto Steve DeAngelo lays out a very straightforward presentation about cannabis, from legal and economic issues to history and health matters. In doing so he shows how all of these factors, as well as others (racism, classism, etc), interact in both practice and debate. In other words, when a discussion starts out based on legal issues, whether the illegality in general or the contribution of it to the for-profit prison system, both history and race have to be included. This book should be read by everyone who has, or claims to have, an opinion about cannabis. Research is referenced, including both medical studies and social research, and DeAngelo makes his points in a very rational and considered manner. For those on any side of the ongoing debates this book will provide the facts so often missing from the cliche-ridden discourse. If anyone continues to spew cliches but refuses to read this book it is simply evidence of something other than reality or logic driving the emotions.Reviewed from a copy made available through Goodreads First Reads.
