It outlines the very latest developments in our understanding of the human cannabinoid system, and links this knowledge to clinical and epidemiological facts about the impact of cannabis on mental health. Clinically focused chapters review not only the direct psychomimetic properties of cannabis, but also the impact consumption has on the courses of evolving or established mental illness such as schizophrenia. A number of controversial issues are critically explored, including whether a discrete 'cannabis psychosis' exists, and whether cannabis can actually cause schizophrenia. Effects of cannabis on mood, notably depression, are reviewed, as are its effects on cognition. This book will be of interest to all members of the mental health team, as well as to neuroscientists and those involved in drug and alcohol research.1.

There is little doubt that the chapters are expertly written . Marijuana and Madness illustrates clearly the benefits of a multi-disciplinary perspective in providing the tools for answering a complex question.' Addiction'I believe the book is a must even for the smallest institutional mental health or drug dependency services library. Individual practitioners specialising in drug problems and those specialising in schizophrenia would do well to have their own copies.' Australian Medicine'The chapters are compact but filled with quality research and sophisticated, in-depth analysis. The authors do not oversimplify or overemphasize the evidence.
