Busted: An Illustrated History of Drug Prohibition in Canada

Busted is a visually engaging illustrated history of Canadian drug prohibition and resistance to that prohibition. Reproducing drawings, paintings, photographs, film stills and official documents from the 1700s to the present, Susan Boyd shows how Canada's drug prohibition policies evolved and were shaped by race, class and gender discrimination. For more than a century, drug prohibition has been and continues to be an expensive failure.
