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.
