Description

A.H. & A.W. Reed, Wellington, 1984. Hardback, with fading to dustjacket spine; may have chips/small tears to top of spine, foxing to page edges.

This book offers a delightfully fresh and often witty analysis of the combination of Christian and non-religious strands in our social life. It reveals the astonishing doctoring of drugs, from morphine to tea, by capitalist and quake alike and it gives us throughout a provocative insight into the sexual and drug-taking practices that many, even today, might well prefer to ignore.
