In this book, Rubman presents a study that calls us to
reflect on how the acceptance and widespread use of cannabis leads to cultural
deterioration that goes beyond what we imagine. The author combines data,
history, and social criticism to show us the consequences that mass consumption
can have on our health, causing moral damage and affecting our ability to work.
Although his position may seem radical, he calls us to deeply reflect on the
limits of human freedom. I recommend this work to those who wish to understand
the social and moral conflicts behind the mass consumption of cannabis

I can say that this book was a total surprise. When I
started reading it, I thought I was going to find some kind of serious essay or
perhaps a harsh critique of the impact of marijuana on society. But what I
found was something completely different: a kind of chaotic, funny, and very
human travelogue, written by someone who has clearly lived and smoked every one
of the stories he tells. What captivated me most was that the book weaves
together a collection of anecdotes, notes, thoughts, and scenes in the style of
an informal log. This book is definitely a collection of moments experienced by
someone who has been deeply immersed in cannabis culture for decades. If you're
interested in this world, you should read it.

This is not a political discourse, but rather a lively
travelogue compiled from years of notebook entries. I laughed at the great
stories and the eccentric locals, but the warning in the subtitle resonates in
the background. Rubman captures the thrill of access along with the gray areas:
street deals, underground rules, and the trafficking of happiness. I
appreciated the sincerity more than the lists, but the journey feels authentic,
confusing, and extraordinarily human.
