Description:With an entire generation growing up to accept the use of marijuana (“Mary Jane”) as other generations accepted alcohol and tobacco, the question of whether the drug should be made legal has become one of the most urgent social issues of the day. If you have even a passing interest in this explosive issue, you will find this book fascinating. The book is cast in the form of a fictional Supreme Court case—the case of Rodriguez versus Pennsylvania. It first presents the case for legalizing the drug and follows with the case against. The attorney for each side speaks clearly and to the point, giving the history of marijuana and hashish smoking through the centuries, emphasizing the inaccuracy of much of the folklore concerning the drug, and discussing the evidence now available on the physical effects of the drug, comparing marijuana smoking with cigarette smoking and the drinking of alcohol. Although the case is imaginary, the contentions on each side are based upon actual legal decisions and scientific studies; and the author—an attorney who prepares briefs for cases before the Supreme Court—argues both sides with equal persuasion and fairness. This lucid and provocative presentation draws no conclusion. You must make up your own mind…and you will find here all the ammunition you need to defend your stand.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
