Why are coffee, tobacco, and marijuana available the world over, but not peyote or qat? Why are alcohol and tobacco legal, but not heroin or cocaine? What drives the drug, and how has it come to be what it is today - a vast, chequered pattern of use and abuse, medicine and recreation, commerce and interdiction? A global history of the acquisition of progressively more potent means of altering ordinary waking consciousness, this book provides the big picture of the discovery, interchange, and exploitation of the planet's psychoactive resources, from tea and kola to opiates and amphetamines. Offering a social and biological account of why psychoactive goods proved so seductive, David Courtwright tracks the intersecting paths by which popular drugs entered the stream of global commerce. He shows how the efforts of merchants and colonial planters expanded world supply, drove down prices, and drew millions of less affluent purchasers into the market, effectively democratizing drug consumption. He also shows how Europeans used alcohol as an inducement for native peoples to trade their furs, sell captives into slavery, and negotiate away their lands, and how monarchs taxed drugs to finance their wars and expanding empires. This text explains why such profitable exploitation has increasingly given way, over the last hundred years, to policies of restriction and prohibition - and how economic and cultural considerations have shaped those policies to determine which drugs are readily accessible, which strictly medicinal, and which forbidden altogether.

曾经看过一个直角坐标系,横轴是毒性,纵轴是成瘾性,把各式各样的“瘾品”放在其中对比,其中大麻的成瘾性排在很低的地方,甚至低于烟草和酒精。在各个国家里,各类瘾品受管制的程度也是各不相同的。而这本书大约就是从历史、经济角度梳理这方面的沿革。 一开始读的时候,有一...

如果从故事会的角度来看这本书,你肯定会看到许多关于瘾品的有趣故事。然而,站在投资者的角度来看这本书,也许会是另一个非常好的故事。 瘾有分为物质成瘾及行为成瘾,本书主要是讲述物质成瘾(可卡因、海洛因、吗啡、咖啡因等),而行为成瘾是和物质无关的强迫症,如赌瘾和网...

就在刚才,我泡上一大杯斯里兰卡红茶,思忖着加些蜂蜜也许会更好喝,而这种饮用方法,是我看阿拉法特传记得知的。 就在昨天,我和好友坐在饮品店里,看着老板娘娴熟地打出奶泡调制咖啡,我在柜台后面细细观察了那几台咖啡机,出神地想着以后也要占有一台咖啡机,在家自己调咖啡...

the key message is powerful. Behind global market and trade, economic forces and additive characteristics of the drugs are so intertwined.
