The Mass Psychology of Addiction is written by a psychoanalyst who is a master of neurobiology. He offers solutions that will dramatically lower deaths from addiction. Buying alcohol should require a license that one can lose. You lose your driver's license if you are a bad driver. You lose your alcohol purchase license if you are a bad drunk. All other drugs should be sold at state addictive drug (SAD) centers with ads like "Citizens of New York, please buy our superheroin! We will use the money for schools and garbage collection until you die."

The Mass Psychology of Addiction is for those affected by addiction who want to grow and escape addiction's hold.
