What are drugs? -- Types of drugs -- How to handle it -- What to remember -- More to explore.

People talk a lot about drugs. But, what do they really mean? What does it mean if something is a stimulant or a narcotic? Is alcohol a drug? Can drugs really hurt you? And, if they are so bad for you, why do people take them? What about prescription drugs? What should you say if someone offers you drugs? Sometimes it can be hard to find answers to these tough questions. This book is one place to start.
