Inhaltsangabe
While the War on Drugs may have sounded like a good idea at one time, the consequences have been catastrophic. From physicians persecuted for providing health care to their patients to parents grieving the loss of their children to overdose or prison - we've all become victims of this war.
Our health, our families, our assets, our safety and our freedom are at risk: One in three adults in the U.S. now has a criminal record. Patients with severe illnesses or chronic pain are denied access to proven pain medications.
Over a trillion in taxpayer dollars in the U.S. alone has "bought" the highest drug use, the highest overdose, and the highest incarceration rates in the world.
In War on Us, Colleen Cowles raises the alarm and offers practical, proven reforms. There are answers, as long as we have the will to implement change. It’s time to end the War on Drugs - and the war on all of us. This audiobook is the roadmap to do just that.
Kritikerstimmen
"War on Us is a remarkably comprehensive, evidence-based examination of the war on drugs and all of its victims. The book is personal and accessible, well-researched, contains excellent source material and, most importantly, provides a blueprint for reform. I highly recommend this book to anyone concerned about the increasing toll of death and destruction resulting from America's longest war." (Jeffrey A. Singer, MD, Senior Fellow, Cato Institute)
"A must-read for parents, educators, taxpayers, decision makers, criminal justice professionals and healthcare providers and patients. Author Colleen Cowles shares her knowledge as a researcher, attorney and mother with lived experience." (Gretchen Burns Bergman, Lead Organizer of Moms United to End the War on Drugs)
"A compelling look behind the scenes on the United States "War on Drugs" and the ensuing humanitarian crisis facing those living with chronic disease and addiction." (Lauren Deluca, President, CIAAG - Chronic Illness Advocacy & Awareness Group)
