商品簡介
This annual report from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime presents statistics on production, distribution, and consumption of illegal drugs. Rather than a book of statistical tables, the report is text-based and illustrated with easy-read charts, maps, and tables in a three-color layout. Part 1 provides an overview of recent trends in terms of production, trafficking, and consumption, and the consequences of illicit drug use in terms of treatment, drug-related diseases, and drug-related deaths. Part 2 presents a long-term perspective on the characteristics and evolution of the drug problem worldwide and the main factors that have shaped it over the past several decades, with a look into the future. The report's readership includes researchers and professionals in law enforcement, social services, NGOs, health, and sociology. Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
