Drugs, Behaviour, and Modern Society (Canadian Edition), 2nd Edition

by Charles F. Levinthal; Trevor Hamilton (Author) This ISBN is for the Pearson eText and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplement. As the world shifts to a greater reliance on digital media, it is appropriate that this text evolves as well. This second edition is the first fully digital version of Drugs, Behaviour & Modern Society. Instructors and students will find that, although the medium has changed, the content is fully consistent with the first edition. In today’s world, drugs and their use have the potential for good and for bad. As a society and as individuals, we can be the beneficiaries of drugs—or their victims. This perspective is the message of Drugs, Behaviour, and Modern Society, Second Canadian Edition. This text introduces the basic facts and major issues concerning drug-taking behaviour in a straightforward, comprehensive, and reader-friendly manner. A background in biology, sociology, psychology, or chemistry is not necessary. The only requirement is a sense of curiosity about the range of chemical substances that affect our minds and our bodies and an interest in the challenges these substances bring to our society and our daily lives.
