Summary

Few drugs have as many cultural and social implications as cocaine and crack. These drugs link Hollywood and Detroit, and are signifiers of classic rock icons and racial inequality. How have these drugs shaped the world we live in? How do they shape lives today? How can addictions to these drugs be overcome? Cocaine and crack are highly addictive and can cause severe health problems, but there are ways to get support and treatment. This book offers the support readers need in order to seek treatment for themselves and their loved ones
