Editorial Review:
Designed for the introduction to drugs and substance abuse course as taught in departments of health education, psychology, biology, sociology, and criminal justice, this full-color market-leading text provides the latest information on drug use and its effects on society and human behavior. For over thirty years, instructors and students have relied on it to examine drugs and drug use from a variety of perspectives—in terms of behavioral, pharmacological, historical, social, legal, and clinical points of view.
Drugs, Society, and Human Behavior Reviews:
very informative- 
2009-03-11 - I bought this textbook for a class I had to take and can say that it is very informative, but a little dry.
Outdated edition 
2003-03-13 - The seller needs to list the edition he/she is selling This is a very out dated edition that was sold to me. The seller did not sent any return information like the other agencies did.
An excellent, rational, introductory text 
1996-02-06 - An excellent general overview, covering drug use and
regulation, pharmacological basics, in-depth analyses of the
legal drugs, tranquilizers and stimulants, narcotics,
hallucinogens, and marijuana, and comments on "a rational look
at drug use." Well-documented with an abundance of relevant
quotes and statistics; a rich set of references follow each
chapter.
