Sobre este artículo
Penguin Books, London, 2002. First Edition. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Preface and acknowledgements, Introduction: Coming Up, notes, bibliography and index. Plaintext paperback binding white coloured titles to the front panel and white and yellow coloured titles to the back strip. Quoting from the rear panel blurb " ... Out of It is a superbly informed and sharply observed tour through the history, legality and chemistry of the many substances we used to get hired. Dealing with the full range of drugs (including cocaine, cannabis, caffeine, ecstasy, nicotine, heroin and alcohol) and their effects, Stuart Walton's book also has a shocking but compelling central argument: that we not only have an abiding desire to consume intoxicating substances, but actually have a right to do so." Little rubbing of the book edges and panels with age toning of the text block edges and pages. The outer edges of the pages had become a little more tanned. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. [9], X - XXVIII, [1], 2 - 291, [1] pages,. Please refer to accompanying picture (s). Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo. Category: Sociology & Culture; Drugs; ISBN: 0140279776.
