In The Author's Voice: Marijuana Debunked

cover of book Marijuana Debunked

With medical marijuana now legally available in Illinois, the state's pilot program is hitting full stride.  In fact, according to national statistics, 23 states and the District of Columbia have some form of legal marijuana usage.

An addiction psychiatrist is out with a new book that examines the dangers of legalizing pot in any form.  WSIU's Jeff Williams talks with Dr. Ed Gogek about his new book "Marijuana Debunked: A handbook for parents, pundits and politicians who want to know the case against legalization" for this edition of In The Author's Voice.

Jeff Williams is the Associate Director for Radio and Station Manager for WSIU Radio. Jeff is a native of southern Illinois and has been in broadcasting for 30 years. Contact WSIU Radio at 618-453-6101 or email wsiuradio@wsiu.org
