The essential source for understanding how drugs affect the body and behavior.

Fully updated, this matter-of-fact audio handbook includes the most recent discoveries about drug use, including new information on electronic smoking devices, abuse of prescription stimulants, and the opioid crisis. “Lively, highly informative, unbiased, [and] thorough” (Addiction Research & Theory), Buzzed surveys drugs from caffeine to heroin to reveal how these drugs affect the body, the different “highs” they produce, and the circumstances in which they can be deadly.

Neither a “just say no” treatise nor a “how to” manual, Buzzed is based on the conviction that people make better decisions with accurate information at hand.

Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

I've always been looking for the "perfect" book on these types of drugs, stimulants, alcohol, opioids, hallucinogens, etc. and never found the right one, until now!

This book only has what's required knowledge but still has length, revealing its density!! It has everything from what are the names of drugs, class of drug, commons names (aliases), effects (both good and bad), and so many more it's impossible to say! but by far, my favorite is the "brief history" because always wanted a drug like this, one that explains them scientifically, but also one that has some narrative or no-so-textbook-y feel about it. Now, the history is short, usually about a page, but it covers what you need!
The book scatters little facts about history, the drug, it's effects, and so many things about it that, if you know and share, people will assume you're so smart!

This book is incredibly dense that I had to only read a max of 3 chapters a day because I wouldn't remember anything if I stuffed my brain. If you get the real book, it also has photos of many drugs on it! I learned so much, and even if you read 1 chapter a day, which is what I did most days, you'll feel as if you read a whole book!

The performance is great also! At first I didn't like it but after a while, his voice matched the tone of the book, in a im-smarter-than-you-but-not-snarky way; very professional and professor-like!!

The perfect book for recreational substance and more!

I read this book for my class in college and I enjoyed it and I will be reading and listening to it again. I own the book and I have it on audible.

Great college read
