I particularly liked the way the references were organized and presented, the tables and figures were constructed, and the chapters were built upon one another, so readers can navigate through the complicated cannabis pathway in a clear and cohesive manner. Well done.

This primer is very well done, very thorough and well researched. The tables and graphics make it much more "digestible" in comparison to a medical text. This is an asset for potential patients.
