Many of those converts, who have given the idea its new respectability, are included in this book: Baltimore mayer Kurt Schmoke, Nobel laureate Milton Friedman, columnists Anthony Lewis and William F. Buckley, Jr., New York legislator Joseph Galiber, social policy analyst Charles Murray, economist Thomas Sowell, the editors of The Economist, and two of the leading scholarly proponents of drug legalization, Ethan A. Nadelmann of Princeton University and James Osnowski of Citizens Against Prohibition. This volume provides an introduction to the legislation alternative. It is must reading for any American seriously concerned about drugs, the drug war, and what they are doing to America.
