The Social Value of Drug Addicts: Uses of the Useless
ISBN: 9781611321173 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Drug users are typically portrayed as worthless slackers, burdens on society, and just plain useless--culturally, morally, and economically.

Synthesizing a broad range of key literature and...
