"No matter which direction our focus turned--social inequality, media coverage of crime, criminal justice as industry, racism, crime causation, prison overcrowding, or expanding police powers--we bumped into substance abuse and drug wars as an influential dimension for each. It became clear that understanding crime and justice issues requires a sound understanding of the nature of substance abuse and our society's reaction to it." (from the Preface)
