Medical Cannabis is an extremely socially relevant topic, however when people discuss its legality, there is a universal lack of knowledge. Invariably, they are bombarded with a multitude of scientific terms that are unfamiliar to the layperson which causes unnecessary apprehension when one is considering using one of the oldest and most misunderstood holistic medications in the history of the world. In this text, the author chronicles the history of medical marijuana, how it is being utilized presently, and the social and political landscape that is ever changing. The author's common-sense, no-nonsense approach, makes this book a must read for the person who wants to know more about the realistic nuances of cannabis and its general medicinal uses.
