Book Description
The emergence of ketamine--previously known as a combat anesthetic and club drug--as a treatment for depression. Ketamine, approved in 2019 by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of depression, has been touted by scientists and media reports as something approaching a miracle cure. This volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series chronicles the ascent of a drug that has been around for fifty years--in previous incarnations, a Vietnam-era combat anesthetic and a popular club drug--that has now been reinvented as a treatment for depression. Bita Moghaddam, a leading researcher in neuropharmacology, explains the scientific history and the biology of ketamine, its clinical use, and its recently discovered antidepressant effects, for the nonspecialist reader.

Book Description
Why a book about suicide, COVID-19, and Ketamine? These delicate topics are more inter-related than you might think. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that each year 800,000 people die from suicide. But have you wondered about the long-term unintended consequences of COVID-19? The deluge of mental-health problems like depression, suicide, and drug overdoses resulting from the pandemic. Depression, suicide and drug overdoses have been a problem since long before the pandemic. But COVID-19 has made the situation worse: it is more of a crisis than a pandemic. Lockdowns have fueled a litany of tragedies: suicides, drug overdoses, heightened crime, starvation, financial ruin, and much more. Adolescent and adult mental illness have skyrocketed during the crisis, and the tsunami of post-traumatic stress, depression, and suicides will follow. The mental-health consequences will persist long after the COVID-19 pandemic ends. Because of the lockdowns, we expect millions of people will die of hunger and postponed medical treatments, a potential outcome that, unfortunately, has developed less notice. The result is a "perfect storm" of suicides and drug overdose deaths. Mental-health practitioners are employing everything, including telemedicine, to help people battle this threat. Suicide is subtle, and the decision to take your own life is often impulsive. The treatment of suicide and depression is complex, with current medications taking weeks or months to work. When a loved one commits suicide, they leave many unanswered questions. Constant thoughts of "what" and "why," permeate the minds of those left behind. We do not have many effective treatments for suicide. But there is one drug that can often stop suicide in its tracks: ketamine. Few are aware that this decades-old anesthetic and party drug might save your loved one's or even your life. Our goal is to convince you ketamine is a legitimate path to treat mental disorders. Simply said, ketamine works. If your loved one was suicidal, would you suggest trying ketamine? Or use it yourself?

Book Description
A Financial Times best business book of 2023 In 1998, at the age of 24, Tony Hsieh sold his first company to Microsoft for $265 million. In 2009, at the age of 35, he sold his e-commerce company, Zappos, to Amazon for $1.2 billion. In 2020, at the age of 46, he died. Tony Hsieh revolutionized both the tech world and corporate culture. He was a business visionary. He was also a man in search of happiness. So why did it all go so wrong? Tony Hsieh’s first successful venture was in middle school, selling personalized buttons. At Harvard, he made a profit compiling and selling study guides. From there, he went on to build the billion-dollar online shoe empire of Zappos. The secret to his success? Making his employees happy. At its peak, Zappos’s employee-friendly culture was so famous across the tech industry that it inspired copycats and earned a cult following. Then Hsieh moved the Zappos headquarters to Las Vegas, where he personally funded a nine-figure campaign to revitalize the city’s historic downtown area. But as Hsieh fell deeper into his struggles with mental health and drug addiction, the people making up his inner circle began changing from friends to enablers. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with a wide range of people whose lives Hsieh touched, journalists Angel Au-Yeung and David Jeans craft a rich portrait of a man who was plagued by his eternal search for happiness and ultimately succumbed to his own demons.

Book Description
The use of designer drugs such as LSD, Ecstasy, and methamphetamines is unfortunately widespread among young adults, particularly in club or party settings. These drugs are especially risky because they are made in batches in individual home labs, so there is no way to tell how much of any dangerous substance was used in their creation. Readers learn the risks associated with using many of these designer drugs. The accessible text, complemented by full-color photographs and in-depth sidebars, gives them the facts they need to make safe choices.

Book Description
Drugs are ubiquitous in the past and present of capitalist society. What can they tell us about our society and economy? Americans are in the midst of a world-historic drug binge. Opiates, amphetamines, benzodiazepines, marijuana, antidepressants, antipsychotics—across the board, consumption has shot up in the 21st century. At the same time, the United States is home to the largest prison system in the world, justified in part by a now zombified “war” on drugs. How did we get here? Quick Fixes is a look at American society through the lens of its pharmacological crutches. Though particularly acute in recent decades, the contradiction between America’s passionate love and intense hatred for drugs has been one of its defining characteristics for over a century. Through nine chapters, each devoted to the modern history of a drug or class of drugs, Fong examines Americans’ fraught relationship with psychoactive substances. As society changes it produces different forms of stress, isolation, and alienation. These changes, in turn, shape the sorts of drugs society chooses. By laying out the histories, functions, and experiences of our chemical comforts, the hope is to help answer that ever perplexing question: what does it mean to be an American?
