Review of The United States of Opioids
[Following is a volunteer review of "The United States of Opioids" by Harry Nelson.]
Harry Nelson is a leading lawyer in healthcare in the United States of America. For a considerable length of time, he has been on the cutting edge of behavioral well-being, advocating against the popular ways of treating pains that lead to addiction and other issues. His book, The United States of Opioids presents an insight into the Opioids crisis that is prevalent in the country.
The book begins with a Foreword by Lisa Marie Presley who shares her story on dealing with opioids. She pointed out that another issue that comes with dealing with opioids is dealing with shame and she encourages people to stop judging themselves and other people. The first chapter of the book provides an understanding of how the crisis has prevailed over the past twenty years. The author reveals the alarming number of victims that have been affected and killed by this crisis.
Before stumbling on this book, I had no idea what opioids were. If you are in the same shoes, then you may want to pay close attention to chapter two. The chapter contains an account of what opioids are, how many varieties there are, why they are so addictive and why they kill people. The book goes ahead to talk about the regulations that can be blamed to have cleared the paths for a manifestation of the opioids crisis, how the nation’s health system aided the crisis and he plunges ahead to present deeper roots of the crisis. The concluding chapter of the book presents a reflection of the part everyone can play to help with this crisis.
The United States of Opioids is obviously birthed from series of thorough research and I find this very impressive. The writer also made sure to present a very detailed work concerning this subject. There is a record of its history, causes and a reflection on the way ahead. Most importantly, Harry also talked about solutions and crucial tools that everyone can use to protect themselves from this crisis. He did not fail to provide resource guides for further understanding and a glossary collection. The book is also very engaging and relatable.
I think that chapter two of this book could have been written in a simpler way that would make even an unlearned person understand what opioids are really about. Besides this, there is nothing else that I dislike about the book. It is exceptionally edited and very well structured. I give the book a rating of 4 out of 4 stars and I recommend it to everyone especially professionals and students who are into health-related fields.
