Alcohol and drugs play a significant role in society, regardless of
socioeconomic class. This encyclopedia looks at the history of all
drugs in North America, including alcohol, tobacco, prescription
drugs, cannabis, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and even
chocolate and caffeinated drinks. This two-volume encyclopedia
provides accessibly written coverage on a wide range of topics,
covering substances ranging from whiskey to peyote as well as
related topics such as Mexican drug trafficking and societal
effects caused by specific drugs. The entries also supply an
excellent overview of the history of temperance movements in Canada
and the United States; trends in alcohol consumption, its
production, and its role in the economy; as well as alcohol's and
drugs' roles in shaping national discourse, the creation of
organizations for treatment and study, and legal responses. This
resource includes primary documents and a bibliography offering
important books, articles, and Internet sources related to the
topic.
