Description

Compiled by the Metropolitan Police, and based on their own in-service training pack, this book offers a completely factual guide to all the different drugs currently being misused. With the help of over 100 full-colour illustrations, the book describes what each drug looks like, and gives details of how it is taken, the possible effects and dangers, the symptoms to look out for, the equipment and paraphernalia associated with the drug, and the slang names it may be known by.
