I have finished a review of Forces of Habit: Drugs and the Making of the
Modern World by David Courtwright for the New England Journal of
Medicine.  I really enjoyed the book.  I have suggested it to our
undergraduate "History Book Club" for summertime reading.

The book is engaging to read, and provides a truly broad perspective.  I
recommend it highly.
