Rise of Cannabis press release
Released in August, "The Rise of Cannabis " is not
your typical book about the controversial plant. Instead, it takes readers on a
journey through the author's personal experiences and observations, offering a
unique and intimate perspective on the culture surrounding cannabis. You will visit
New York, Boston, Lima, Luxor, and Los Angeles
Through a combination of anecdotes, humor, and uncomfortable
moments, the book raises thought-provoking questions about productivity,
values, and social change. It's not a serious or moralistic essay, but rather a
lived-from-the-inside kind of diary that invites readers to reflect on their
own relationship with cannabis and its impact on society.
The Rise of Cannabis and the Decline in Civilization is a
timely and relevant read for anyone interested in the evolving landscape of
cannabis culture. As the author shares their own journey, readers will laugh,
cringe, and ultimately gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and
nuances of this controversial topic. This book has been receiving excellent
reviews.
There is also an appendix with business information, such as
the stock market, cryptocurrency, a glossary, seeds, rolling papers, brands, strains,
and a long list of Los Angeles dispensaries.
The book is now available for purchase on Amazon, Kindle,
Audible, and at The Woods Dispensary. For more information and updates, follow Mitch
Rubman on social media and visit his website, www.RiseofCannabis.com. Join the
conversation and explore the chaotic, funny, and very human side of cannabis
culture with The Rise of Cannabis and the Decline in Civilization.
