In an unusual move, conservative syndicated columnist (and executive editor of National review magazine) dedicated an entire column last week to a discussion of a new book, Marijuana Myths, Marijuana Facts" by Lynn Zimmer, Ph.D. and Dr. John P. Morgan, M.D. The column urged parents, teachers and especially lawmakers to read the book in order to become more informed before attempting to set policy in this area. Also, the current issue of Rolling Stone magazine (Oct. 20) features the book in its lead editorial by editor Jann Wenner.

If you don't already own a copy of this scientifically sound and socially relevant book, why the heck not? You can order it (it's $12.95) by calling BookWorld at (800) 444-2524. Outside the US, call (941) 758-8094. The ISBN # is 0- 9641568-4-9. Or, better yet, go on down to your local bookstore and ask them to order it!
