It's been called everything from hemp and Mary Jane, to reefer, pot, andweed. Cannabis sativa—marijuana—offers therapeutic applications foreverything from Alzheimer's disease and AIDS to Crohn's disease andcancer, and yet it is at the center of a national debate over its medicinaluses. And although research and anecdotal evidence clearly support thebenefits of Cannabis sativa, use of the healing herb is hindered by misinformationand misunderstanding.

Carol S. Bott, a nurse and chemical dependency specialist, addresses thefalse claims about marijuana and provides a compelling case for using theherb to provide relief to innocent, suffering, and dying patients. With aclear and concise question-and-answer format, she provides a detailedguide for growing cannabis, instructions for cooking with it, and advice forpreparing topical applications. Bott emphasizes the appropriate medicaluses of marijuana and urges that patient use be informed by local and statelaw. Most importantly, she presents extensive research to support herposition that marijuana is one of the most healing and balancing herbsavailable today.

Whether you support the legalization of cannabis or are adamantly opposedto it, How-To Marijuana will give you invaluable insight into its uses andbenefits.

Marijuana: Medical Papers, 1839-1972 (Cannabis: Collected Clinical Papers) Review

First off, it needs to be emphasized that this is not really a book aimed at the casual reader (though it is accessibly-written) ; It does not offer simple statistics or glib summaries. This book is literally primarily a collection of medical research papers, which are generally written with those relatively well-versed in medicine in mind. However, that does not necessarily render them boring or clinical. The older papers are fun to read if for no other reason than the fact that the anachronistic language relative to today makes you feel like you're reading a story, which is amplified by the apparent tendency of the authors of the time to frame their papers primarily in narrative form. Very little of the book is overly dry and clinical and "jargon"-y; the sections that are the most so are the chemical analysis that start appearing in the most recent papers. The vast majority of the book is actually very readable, and the recorded patient interviews in some of the papers are entertaining enough for some folks who have no interest in the medical aspects of cannabis or cannabis in general. The book is very informative and, though very wordy, effectively provides diagrams and charts to aid in comprehension when suitable.
Mikuriya's book is, in my opinion, a must-have addition to the library of anyone interested in medicine of any sort, particularly those not shy to accept uses of natural medicine as potentially valid in certain contexts. Those curious about the properties of this fascinating plant seeking to be better informed, or anyone who has an opinion on "the drug war" or prohibition would benefit much from reading this collection of clinical papers. I can't recommend it enough. So long as you're not expecting a "shopping list fact book" of some sort, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
