'Governing the Heroin Trade sweeps through most of our common assumptions about how drugs have become a modern curse. In Melissa Bull's analysis, the shape of present concerns about heroin addiction appears somewhat strange, its truthfulness less certain. The value of a solid history of human sciences for understanding how we are governed is amply demonstrated here.' David McCallum, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia 'This book will be read by those with an interest in improving governance, particularly of illicit drugs. I commend it also to those prepared to have their views about why we problematize illicit drugs challenged and to see just how important the problematization is to the process of government and the lives of those governed.' Drug and Alcohol Review
