THE CANNABIS MANIFESTO: A NEW PARADIGM OF WELLNESS
Book ID/图书代码： 11907016B89308
English Summary/英文概要： The Cannabis Manifesto is both a call to action and a radical vision of humans’ relationship with this healing but controversial plant. Steve DeAngelo, the founder of Harborside Health Center, the world’s largest medical-cannabis dispensary, presents a compelling case for cannabis as a wellness catalyst that must be legalized. His view that there is no such thing as recreational cannabis use challenges readers to rethink everything they thought they knew about marijuana.
The Cannabis Manifesto answers essential questions about the plant, using extensive research to fuel a thoughtful discussion about cannabis science and law, as well as its biological, mental, and spiritual effects on human beings. With a cultural critic’s eye peering through the lens of social justice, DeAngelo explains how cannabis prohibition has warped our most precious institutions from the family, to the workplace, to the doctor s office and the courtroom. In calling for a realistic national policy on a substance that has been used by half of all Americans, this essential primer will forever change the way the world thinks about cannabis, its benefits, and the laws governing its use.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本书既是一个号召，也是人类与大麻这种具有治疗效果但是颇具争议的植物之间关系的缓和。Steve DeAngelo是Harborside卫生服务中心的创始人，那是世界上最大的医用大麻产地，并号召让能够起到健身催化作用的大麻得以合法化。他的观点是，大麻本来就不是用来娱乐的，这个想法挑战读者，促使他们重新审视自己所知的有关大麻的一切。
本书回答了有关这种植物的一些问题，通过广泛的研究展开一场激荡思想的讨论，即有关大麻的科学以及法律，以及大麻从生物学、心理学以及精神角度对于人类造成的影响。本书仿佛是一个文化评论家透过社会正义的镜片审视这一切，DeAngelo解释了禁止大麻使用是如何扭曲了我们的家庭、工作场所、医生的办公室以及法庭。本书希望国家制定政策时能够考虑这种有一半美国人实际正在吸食的物质，毕竟大麻给我们带来了不少好处。(LYR)
Awards/获奖情况：本书中，Steve DeAngelo所写的东西几乎相当于大麻的《独立宣言》。（Sara Davidson，著有《Loose Change》）
