As an increasing number of states in the U.S. and countries worldwide move to legalize the recreational use of marijuana, the business of cannabis-both legal and illicit-and its use continue to grow. Mental health and medical professionals alike must be prepared to address the effects of cannabis on the mind and body.
That is the principal motivation behind The Other Side of Cannabis: To provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the deleterious impact of cannabis use. In extensively referenced and accessible chapters, experts from around the world discuss the effects of cannabis on adolescents, adults, and older adults; the link between cannabis use and conditions such as PTSD and psychosis; the effects of cannabis on fertility; and a myriad of other topics.
With the actionable information available in this volume, both psychiatric and medical providers will be better positioned to educate patients, the public, and policymakers on an important and timely topic.
