内容简介

Drugs are everywhere--on our streets, in our homes, and in our schools--but straight facts about drugs are not. Drugs: The Straight Facts fills this void with candid discussions that emphasize a historical and scientific approach to learning about drugs, their use, and their effect on the user's health. A historical perspective on tobacco, this book discusses some of the legal debates surrounding smoking. Trace the path nicotine travels through the body, analyze the health hazards smoking creates, and learn about nicotine's addictive qualities.
