From America's most visible, most devoted rebel--ammunition galore to combat an insidious, insulting threat to the rights of all Americans. A satirical, yet serious, response to mandatory drug testing in the workplace. Black-and-white cartoons.
This book should be required reading for all of those video-numbed and propaganda-filled young minds who came of age during or after the dark era of Ronald Reagan and Ed Meese, for whom urinating in a cup in order to get a job is "normal". Abbie gives us the real history of this insanity and solid information on the shortfalls of such testing, along with some practical advice on how to get around the lifestyle police. A great book by a great American!
Very helpful information to see how tests are avoided.

Hard to rate! As a substance abuse professional who has been doing drug testing for well over 25 years, I find this book helpful to find games people play to avoid detection. I use it heavily when doing training to show students what their clients learn from the "underground." One problem with the details is its lack of accuracy. His philosophy overrides his sense of science. The book goes far to point out a serious weakness in the collection process. That we do not do observed testing in the workplace places us in a position of testing stupidity rather than drug abuse.
one of abbie's best books yet.

I quote Abbie's research in this book everywhere I go. A good paraphrase to preface EVERY utterence is "no one would go to a doctor who simply said, 'Rest, vitamin-C and apple juice,' unless s/he also ordered the patient SOME kind of prescription. A magic pill." -abbie badly paraphrased by the prime anarchist, his humble nephew and "servant-to-cause."
