Download or read book The Narcotic Drug Problem (Classic Reprint) written by Ernest S. Bishop and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Narcotic Drug Problem This book has been prepared in response to a growing demand that the author group together under one cover some of the material collected out of a varied experience with many aspects and phases of narcotic drug addiction, and with activities in the attempted solution of its problems. Some of this experience has been previously presented in many addresses before scientific and other societies and in articles in the medical press. The author is not associated with nor interested in any hospital or institution active in the care of these cases for financial return or pecuniary benefit. He is not the exponent or mouthpiece or proponent of any special or specific "remedy" or "treatment" or method of so-called "cure." He has no axe to grind. He is not a "specialist" in the treatment of narcotic drug addiction. He is a practitioner of diagnostic and clinical medicine, in whose professional work the care of the narcotic addict has constituted much the smaller part of his activities and studies, and that part has been largely carried on without recompense and often at his personal expense. Some years ago, through hospital affiliations and duties, the writer was brought to face this problem of opiate addiction and after a while saw in it very important and very interesting clinical problems of physical disease and physical reactions upon which he made observations and studies.

Download or read book The Narcotic Drug Diseases and Allied Ailments written by George Eugene Pettey and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Narcotic Drug Diseases and Allied Ailments: Pathology, Pathogenesis, and Treatment The conviction, reinforced by long experience, that drug habitues are, in most cases, the blameless victims of disease, and that they not only merit sympathy and consideration, but are entitled to rational and skillful medical aid, such as is accorded the sufferers from other physical ailments, has impelled the author to write and publish this work. This volume treats narcotic addiction as a disease, a toxemia, of drug, auto and intestinal origin, the management and treatment of which belong to the field of internal medicine and not to neurology. The vital and essential principle of the treatment advocated is elimination. This method, with all its auxiliaries, is presented herein in detail, and furnishes a rational basis for the scientific medication and humane management of these cases.

Download or read book Addicts Who Survived written by David T. Courtwright and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors employ the techniques of oral history to penetrate the nether world of the drug user, giving us an engrossing portrait of life in the drug subculture during the "classic" era of strict narcotic control. Praise for the hardcover edition: "A momentous book which I feel is destined to become a classic in the category of scholarly narcotic books." —Claude Brown, author of the bestseller, Manchild in the Promised Land. "The drug literature is filled with the stereotyped opinions of non-addicted, middle-class pundits who have had little direct contact with addicts. These stories are reality. Narcotic addicts of the inner cities are both tough and gentle, deceptive when necessary and yet often generous--above all, shrewd judges of character. While judging them, the clinician is also being judged." —Vincent P. Dole, M.D., The Rockefeller Institute. "What was it like to be a narcotic addict during the Anslinger era? No book will probably ever appear that gives a better picture than this one. . . . a singularly readable and informative work on a subject ordinarily buried in clichés and stereotypes." —Donald W. Goodwin, Journal of the American Medical Association " . . . an important contribution to the growing body of literature that attempts to more clearly define the nature of drug addiction. . . . [This book] will appeal to a diverse audience. Academicians, politicians, and the general reader will find this approach to drug addiction extremely beneficial, insightful, and instructive. . . . Without qualification anyone wishing to acquire a better understanding of drug addicts and addiction will benefit from reading this book." —John C. McWilliams, Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography "This study has much to say to a general audience, as well as those involved in drug control." —Publishers Weekly "The authors' comments are perceptive and the interviews make interesting reading." —John Duffy, Journal of American History "This book adds a vital and often compelling human dimension to the story of drug use and law enforcement. The material will be of great value to other specialists, such as those interested in the history of organized crime and of outsiders in general." —H. Wayne Morgan, Journal of Southern History "This book represents a significant and valuable addition to the contemporary substance abuse literature. . . . this book presents findings from a novel and remarkably imaginative research approach in a cogent and exceptionally informative manner." —William M. Harvey, Journal of Psychoactive Drugs "This is a good and important book filled with new information containing provocative elements usually brought forth through the touching details of personal experience. . . . There isn't a recollection which isn't of intrinsic value and many point to issues hardly ever broached in more conventional studies." —Alan Block, Journal of Social History
Book Synopsis Creating the American Junkie by : Caroline Jean Acker
Download or read book Creating the American Junkie written by Caroline Jean Acker and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2006-01-05 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heroin was only one drug among many that worried Progressive Era anti-vice reformers, but by the mid-twentieth century, heroin addiction came to symbolize irredeemable deviance. Creating the American Junkie examines how psychiatrists and psychologists produced a construction of opiate addicts as deviants with inherently flawed personalities caught in the grip of a dependency from which few would ever escape. Their portrayal of the tough urban addict helped bolster the federal government's policy of drug prohibition and created a social context that made the life of the American heroin addict, or junkie, more, not less, precarious in the wake of Progressive Era reforms. Weaving together the accounts of addicts and researchers, Acker examines how the construction of addiction in the early twentieth century was strongly influenced by the professional concerns of psychiatrists seeking to increase their medical authority; by the disciplinary ambitions of pharmacologists to build a drug development infrastructure; and by the American Medical Association's campaign to reduce prescriptions of opiates and to absolve physicians in private practice from the necessity of treating difficult addicts as patients. In contrast, early sociological studies of heroin addicts formed a basis for criticizing the criminalization of addiction. By 1940, Acker concludes, a particular configuration of ideas about opiate addiction was firmly in place and remained essentially stable until the enormous demographic changes in drug use of the 1960s and 1970s prompted changes in the understanding of addiction—and in public policy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facts First: On Narcotics, Alcohol, Drugs Tobacco One day a noted flyer came to Elm Grove School. He spoke in the assembly hall. All the children went to hear him. He told about airplanes and flying. He told about Corrigan and Lindbergh. "After Lindbergh arrived in Paris," said the speaker, "he was often offered wine. He always politely refused it. 'I do not drink anything but water' he said. This is a good motto for today," the speaker went on. "Boys and girls who want to succeed in work or in sports must have steady hands, quick muscles, and clear eyes. They should not use narcotics in any form."

Download or read book Federal Regulation of Methadone Treatment written by Committee on Federal Regulation of Methadone Treatment and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-02-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly three decades, methadone hydrochloride has been the primary means of treating opiate addiction. Today, about 115,000 people receive such treatment, and thousands more have benefited from it in the past. Even though methadone's effectiveness has been well established, its use remains controversial, a fact reflected by the extensive regulation of its manufacturing, labeling, distribution, and use. The Food and Drug Administration regulates the safety and effectiveness of methadone, as it does for all drugs, and the Drug Enforcement Administration regulates it as a controlled substance. However, methadone is also subjected to a unique additional tier of regulation that prescribes how and under what circumstances it may be used to treat opiate addiction. Federal Regulation of Methadone Treatment examines current Department of Health and Human Services standards for narcotic addiction treatment and the regulation of methadone treatment programs pursuant to those standards. The book includes an evaluation of the effect of federal regulations on the provision of methadone treatment services and an exploration of options for modifying the regulations to allow optimal clinical practice. The volume also includes an assessment of alternatives to the existing regulations.
