Anyone who still believes that the moderate use of recreational drugs is morally wrongful should read Lovering's thorough argument to the contrary. - Doug Husak, Rutgers University, USA This book fills a void. Lovering lays out the most important arguments for the view that recreational drug use is morally wrong. He then argues, in a philosophically sophisticated and empirically informed way, that none of those arguments is successful. This is a most impressive book, and any future attempt to argue that recreational drug use is morally wrong will have to involve an attempt to answer Lovering's contentions. - Michael Tooley, University of Colorado at Boulder, USA

This is one of the most accessible, thoughtful, delightful additions to the war on the war on drugs that I've seen in years. This book really turned my head around. - Mitch Earleywine, State University of New York, Albany, USA, and host of Cannabis Radio's Burning Issues
