Cannabis sativa is best known as the plant source of marijuana, the world's most widely consumed illicit recreational drug. However, it is also extremely useful as a source of stem fiber, edible seed oil, and medicinal compounds, all of which are undergoing extraordinarily promising research, technological applications, and business investment. This book is a comprehensive reference reviewing, analyzing, and summarizing botanical, horticultural, genetic, ecological, chemical, medical, historical, sociological, legal and business considerations that are critical for the wise advancement and management of cannabis.
