685Reefer Madness: Cannabis, the Individual, and Public PolicyIn Dale Jaquette (ed.), Cannabis and Philosophy: What Were We Just Talking About?, Wiley-blackwell. 2010.This paper is a survey of the positive and negative aspects of cannabis use from the point of view of the individual on one hand and from the point of view of the society on the other hand. Health, social, and political motives are all discussed, and the best method of harm reduction is analysed. The upshot is that zero tolerance policy is obsolete, and that most individuals would be better off using cannabis rather than other drugs.
