Book Description
Have you ever had an in-depth talk with someone who has been addicted to drugs? Listened to them talk about the utterly inescapable, irresistible need to use drugs no matter what the consequences? Heard the depravity and self-loathing they felt while committing acts of an immoral and often violent nature in pursuit of the drugs they can't resist. Inside Dope: Surviving Addiction is author Rufus J. Davis Jr.'s searingly honest look at the world of drug addiction. It weaves a myriad of subjects related to addiction, recovery, and life together while methodically walking you through the entire cycle of addiction and recovery. Inside Dope is the story of the struggles of one addict and the people he met during his labyrinthine journeys on the roller coaster of addiction. It reveals how the families and loved ones of those at various stages of addiction and recovery are also impacted, and Davis does not shrink from providing a crystal-clear picture of what can happen to the lives of those the addict loves the most. Yet ultimately, Inside Dope is an inspiring beacon of encouragement beckoning through the fog to offer hope, and a blueprint for recovery from the pernicious blight of addiction. Rufus J.

He finished high school and attended college in Chicago before entering the US Air Force as a Titan II nuclear missile launch crew member for four years before being honorably discharged in 1973. He went on to sell life insurance and own a liquor store and nightclub and an auto repair business. He retired from his full-time job as a supervisor for a national passenger railroad in 2015.

Book Description
An IOC insider speaks out on creating a drug-free sports culture With doping charges leveled at athletes in baseball, cycling, and in the Olympics, cheating has, to many onlookers, become the norm in pro sports. With implications far beyond the sports arena, Inside Dope examines the genesis of doping in sports as well as in the world of doctors and trainers; drug testing and the battle to stay ahead of users; drug companies and big business; and the role of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) as watchdog. Written by a former Olympian, an IOC official, and a passionate advocate of fair play in sports, this eye-opening book takes a candid look at testing standards and the future of doping and sports and the larger issue of how doping affects the public perception of athletes.

Book Description
The 9/11 "conspiracy" is the ultimate McGuffin – it's nothing at all. Its hidden function, though, is very real: to undermine the basis of government – any government, government in principle – and to "reveal" all government as a lethal threat to the people, as an eternal conspiracy. The "Truthers" are anarcho-capitalist libertarians and supporters of Ayn Rand. They are engaged in a vast and frighteningly dangerous conspiracy to replace government with enormous corporations acting according to the "market", and outside any government control or restraint. In this nightmarish new world, people would be brainwashed drones "owned" by corporate leviathans. There would be no freedom, no hope and no escape. Wake up. See what's really going on. See past the smoke and mirrors. Ask yourself that ancient question – cui bono? Who will benefit most from the Truthers' new model of society? The answer is the same one it has always been: the Old World Order. This is a book by the Pythagorean Illuminati ... the Lizard Kings!

Book Description
A myth-busting, 100-year history of the Mexican drug trade that reveals how an industry founded by farmers and village healers became dominated by cartels and kingpins. The Mexican drug trade has inspired prejudiced narratives of a war between north and south, white and brown; between noble cops and vicious kingpins, corrupt politicians and powerful cartels. In this first comprehensive history of the trade, historian Benjamin T. Smith tells the real story of how and why this one-peaceful industry turned violent. He uncovers its origins and explains how this illicit business essentially built modern Mexico, affecting everything from agriculture to medicine to economics—and the country’s all-important relationship with the United States. Drawing on unprecedented archival research; leaked DEA, Mexican law enforcement, and cartel documents; and dozens of harrowing interviews, Smith tells a thrilling story brimming with vivid characters—from Ignacia “La Nacha” Jasso, “queen pin” of Ciudad Juárez, to Dr. Leopoldo Salazar Viniegra, the crusading physician who argued that marijuana was harmless and tried to decriminalize morphine, to Harry Anslinger, the Machiavellian founder of the American Federal Bureau of Narcotics, who drummed up racist drug panics to increase his budget. Smith also profiles everyday agricultural workers, whose stories reveal both the economic benefits and the human cost of the trade. The Dope contains many surprising conclusions about drug use and the failure of drug enforcement, all backed by new research and data. Smith explains the complicated dynamics that drive the current drug war violence, probes the U.S.-backed policies that have inflamed the carnage, and explores corruption on both sides of the border. A dark morality tale about the American hunger for intoxication and the necessities of human survival, The Dope is essential for understanding the violence in the drug war and how decades-old myths shape Mexico in the American imagination today.

Book Description
"One of the most important books of the twentieth century."--Gideon Lewis-Kraus, New Yorker Considered by many to be one of the most influential books of the twentieth century, The Lonely Crowd opened exciting new dimensions in our understanding of the problems confronting the individual in twentieth-century America. Richard Sennett's new introduction illuminates the ways in which Riesman's analysis of a middle class obsessed with how others lived still resonates in the age of social media. "Indispensable reading for anyone who wishes to understand American society. After half a century, this book has lost none of its capacity to make sense of how we live."--Todd Gitlin
