Using meticulous and plentiful research, Sabet demonstrates how the dichotomous, oppositional stances taken in the marijuana debate—“legalization” on the one hand, “incarceration” on the other—are\u003ci\u003eboth\u003c\/i\u003eflawed and merely serve to hinder our ability to find better possible solutions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are other, smarter methods for reform than either full-fledged legalization or tactless incarceration, and before committing ourselves to either, such possibilities should be brought to public awareness.
