The volume is organized around four key questions that are answered with diverse opinions in which authors disagree as well as alternative opinions in which authors may agree on a broader issue but disagree on the possible solutions. The four major issues are: (1) There is/is not a drug abuse crisis: debate includes an examination of use of illegal drugs among youth; (2) Drug testing should/should not be allowed: debate focuses on methods to achieve drug-free workplaces; (3) Antidrug programs are/are not effective: debate includes examination of DARE and other antidrug programs; and (4) Illegal drugs should/should not be legalized: debate includes examination of whether drug legalization would help or harm drug users and society at large. The book includes a list of organizations to contact for further information on the issues debated. Figures, tables, bibliography, index
