ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I could not have written this book without the
assistance of a number of people. I learned a great deal from conversations
with experts in various areas of marijuana research, including Norman Zinberg, Andrew
Weil, Lester Grinspoon, Howard Becker, Wayne Harding, Richard Evans Schultes,
Erich Goode, Jack Margolis, Lance Christie, Jonathan Earle, Carlton Turner, and
Laurence Cherniak. I am grateful to Daniel X. Freedman, Charles Tart, Reese
Jones, Solomon Snyder, Harry Klonoff, and Walter Houston Clark for answering
the questions I asked them.
Michael Aldrich of the Fitz Hugh Ludlow Memorial Library in San
Francisco was helpful and patient beyond my ability to
thank him. Laurence McKinney was extremely generous with his time and ideas and
offered many thoughtful and valuable suggestions.
I am grateful to the librarians at Wessell Library of Tufts
University, and to the staff of the
Economic Botany Library of Harvard University for assistance in locating
obscure books and articles.
Steven Axelrod, my agent, and Ann Close, my editor, supported
this project from the beginning, providing much-needed encouragement and advice
at various points during the preparation of the book.
Several people were indispensable in the preparation of the final
manuscript: Peggy Wagner, Pamela Eells, and especially Linda Manaly Novak.
I benefited from the advice and comments of many friends: Karen
Gorman Kramer, Marc Kramer, Eva Fogelman, Richard Siegel, Jeanne Maman, Leonard
Fein, Barry Novak, Joel Rosenberg, Carol Kur, Bill and Isa Aron, Naomi Katz
Mintz, Anne Fishman, Stephen P. Cohen, Robin Maradie, Moshe Waldoks, Anne
Pomerantz, and Leon Wieseltier.
Nancy Grubbs typed the manuscript twice and was a strong support
throughout.
Special thanks to the members of the Joint Distribution
Committee.
Finally, I owe a great debt to the hundreds of marijuana users
who contributed anonymously to this book through their conversations and
letters. This is really their book as well as mine, and I thank them for
sharing their ideas and experiences, first with me—and now with you.
