Produktbeschreibung

This is the long awaited ePub version of the widely acclaimed 1998 book Marijuana Rx: The Patients' Fight for Medicinal Pot by Robert C. Randall and Alice M. O'Leary. It tells the human story behind the Byzantine legal battles, government stonewalling, public triumphs, and heartbreaking individual tragedies that marked the first twenty years of the medical cannabis movement. Told through the eyes of Robert Randall, the first person to be granted legal access to medical marijuana - grown on the government "pot plantation" -Marijuana Rx is part history, part biography, part love story, part expose: an attempt to record the efforts of some remarkable people who, often at great personal peril, worked to right a wrong. Marijuana Rx is an object lesson in the tenacity and courage required by all would-be Davids when facing the Goliath of government bureaucracy. Anyone who reads this book will come away with a sense of outrage at the ways AIDS, cancer, glaucoma, multiple sclerosis, and other patients have been treated. This is a story to inspire anger and action. Robert Randall passed away in 2001 but his widow, Alice O'Leary Randall, has continued to work in the medical cannabis movement. The original book was published in 1998, nine years before the appearance of Kindle in 2007. (It was originally published by Thunder's Mouth Press which went out-of-business in 2007.) Alice realized that ePub provided an opportunity to make a new historical record with links to twenty years of documents, news articles, pictures, and videos. These links make history come alive making this ePub book a must have for historians, students, activists, and patients.
