About this book

For hundreds of years addiction to drugs has seemed dangerous but with a hint of glamour. Addicts are a mystery to those who have never been one. They are presumed to be in touch with profound enlightenments of which non-addicts are ignorant. Theodore Dalrymple shows that doctors psychologists and social workers have always known these drug addictions to be false! They have created these myths to build lucrative method of expensive quasi-treatment.
