It's a very interesting study on the pros and cons of hemp, highly (no pun intended) recommended for anyone inquiring basic information on this controversial plant. A person could condense this reading by perusing the conclusions at the end of each chapter. Perhaps our elected officials and a few Alaska citizens would find this book educational before they cast their vote later this year. Wes Schacht - --- MAP posted-by: Beth Wehrman
