This week's link comes from our own family of web sites. The Lindesmith Center, a New York based drug policy think tank under the direction of Dr. Ethan Nadelmann, has posted a summary of the recently released report on the three year Swiss heroin trials at http://www.lindesmith.org/presumm.html (see EDITORIAL below). The summary is part of a Focal Point collection of reports and articles on clinical drug substitution and maintenance. These articles are must reads for anyone who gets disgusted when politicians rant about "sending the wrong message" and "enabling addiction," without acknowledging the destructive and wasteful results of our current policies.

While you're there, spend some time poking around the rest of the site. It's a treasure-trove of information and can be searched on the Drug Library's recently re-vamped search engine. (Have I mentioned that we have a new, functioning search engine?)
