Matters of Substance by Griffith Edwards
Edwards presents a radical approach to the much-debated question of drug control. Arguing for a consideration of all drugs, from valium to crack cocaine, as more than its chemical structure, he expands the idea that the effect of a drug is just as dependent on the social setting and psychology of the individual.
Griffith Edwards has advised the Department of Health, the Home Office and the Cabinet Office on aspects of drug and alcohol policy, alongside advising the WHO. He set up research projects in Africa and Latin America and in the USA has acted as consultant to the White House Office in drug abuse. His books have been translated into 12 different languages. He lives in Greenwich, London.
