This book feels like being stuck on a long flight next to the most entertaining person you have ever met.
The Rise of Cannabis and the Decline of Civilization is more than a story about potheads: it's cultural anthropology in disguise. Mitch Rubman's sharp observations and scandalous encounters expose the colorful chaos of cannabis culture, from smoke-filled lounges to street transactions. His tone is part Hunter S. Thompson and part social critic. A messy, funny, and fascinating chronicle of how marijuana became mainstream, and what that says about us.
I didn't know what to expect from this book, but I was pleasantly surprised. Author Mitch Rubman manages to take the reader on a fun and authentic journey into cannabis culture. He presents both crazy adventures and memorable moments. I loved how he combines personal anecdotes, from buying marijuana on the streets of New York to exploring dispensaries in Los Angeles. Each page offers something new with curious characters and unexpected situations.
I think the way cannabis culture is presented, along with lists of dispensaries and even cryptocurrencies, makes it an entertaining and unique read. I recommend it for those looking for something original and surprising. I want to add that I was surprised by this author, and I will definitely read something from him again soon.
