Description

Explore the complex history and science of substance use with this detailed research volume. From ancient fermentation techniques used in Egypt and Sumeria 4000 years ago to the historical use of coca leaves, tobacco, and caffeine, this book traces the long human relationship with narcotics. This publication examines why humans may have an evolutionary predisposition to seek out substances despite the potential for addiction and damage. It provides a deep look into the biological factors involved, including research on how specific genes can make certain individuals more genetically prone to drug addiction than others. Designed for those interested in medical and healthcare research, this book covers various aspects of drug taking, examining both legal and illegal substances. It serves as a comprehensive resource for understanding the historical, evolutionary, and genetic dimensions of drug and alcohol abuse.
