Manifiesto cannabis : Un nuevo paradigma para el bienestar físico, psicológico y espiritual

In Cannabis Manifesto, Steve DeAngelo —the so-called "father of legal cannabis", a global pioneer in the industry and founder of Harborside, the world's largest medical cannabis dispensary— combines personal memoir, medical research, political history, and social activism to tell the other side of the story of the world's most persecuted plant. From his youth leading the subversive Yippies movement to FBI raids, federal trials, and the risk of multiple death sentences, DeAngelo has been on every front of the so-called "war on drugs". And from that experience, he explains, with irrefutable arguments and figures, why the real problem isn't cannabis, but its prohibition: a policy born of racism and misinformation that has filled prisons, torn families apart, and fueled the cartels' business. Thus, this book dismantles myths with data, but above all with very real stories: people who regain sleep and peace of mind; patients who overcome chronic anxiety or find fundamental relief in their cancer treatments; Entire neighborhoods are replacing the black market with jobs and revenue; police officers, doctors, and politicians are daring to switch sides. And, at the same time, it proposes something radically simple: choosing cannabis not to get high, but to feel better physically and psychologically, to be more creative, to grow spiritually, and to be more present in our own lives. Provocative, relatable, and full of extraordinary anecdotes, Cannabis Manifesto is an invitation to rethink our relationship with health, freedom, and pleasure. An essential book for any reader interested in understanding what comes after prohibition and why ending it is now politically and socially imperative.
