The Urge: Our History of Addiction
by Carl Erik Fisher
Part Addiction Memoir, Part Addiction History, enjoyable and informative.
Makes you wonder how many, if any, anti-psychotics, pain-killers and other drugs will still be in use a century from now.
Drugs, even the prescribed ones, have a life-cycle and most of them end up dust-bin of history as dangerous misapplications of medical technology. Maybe I'm applying a statement on narcotics and other addictives to medicine wholesale, but it's a valid question.
