Drugs and the Social Package

on BBC Radio 3

A discussion following last week's two lectures by Griffith Edwards. If, as he suggested, our society's attitude to drug use and its regulation is neither. consistent nor rational, is a more rational attitude possible? Would it be based on more control, for example, of tobacco and alcohol, or on less control of other substances? Can we distinguish more finely between more dangerous and less dangerous drugs? Can more be done to identify, and help, the potential addict? BARBARA WOOTTON
