Cocaine
Seymour Fisher
Cocaine abuse has emerged over the past decade as a major public health problem, and cocaine is believed to have passed marijuana as the most frequently used illegal drug in the US. This book offers a comprehensive discussion of the aspects of cocaine use that are of interest to drug abuse researchers and to clinical psychiatrists and psychologists: the drug's effects on the brain, problems in the treatment of people who use it, and its presentation in the popular media. A final chapter places cocaine in a different context, as one of many psychoactive plants used in the religious ceremonies of primitive New World societies.
