    It cannot but seem a paradox to say that the Thirteenth was the greatest of centuries. To most people the idea will appear at once so preposterous that they may not even care to consider it. A certain number, of course, will have their curiosity piqued by the thought that anyone should evolve so curious a notion. Either of these attitudes of mind will yield at once to a more properly receptive mood if it is recalled that the Thirteenth is the century of the Gothic cathedrals, of the foundation of the university, of the signing of Magna Charta, and of the origin of representative government with something like constitutional guarantees throughout the west of Europe. The cathedrals represent a development in the arts that has probably never been equaled either before or since. The university was a definite creation of these generations that has lived and maintained its usefulness practically in the same form in which it was then cast for the seven centuries ever since. The foundation stones of modern liberties are to be found in the documents which for the first time declared the rights of man during this precious period.

Mankind is naturally evil and good. Ever since we became conscious, the evil within us emerged. Animals are not good or evil, they just follow the power of nature. We became aware of the differences and we continued regardless. No higher agent such as God can be blamed for the rise of darkness in our souls. Moral evil is caused by human activity. 
 
It is argued that our love of darkness proves that there is no God. If God exists and is omnipotent and all-knowing and perfectly good then there would be no natural evil, but there is. Can we continue to blame God for the ways of mankind or is it time we accepted responsibility for our ways? 
 
The truth is that we will not stop any time soon. In this book we examine the dark nature of mankind and the most gruesome and disturbing acts we have committed over time. From the holocaust to human sacrifices to false gods. No bloodstained stone will be unturned. Welcome to the Dark Side.

    We are in the midst of the worst drug crisis in American history. What are we going to do about it?Around 100,000 Americans died of a drug overdose last year—nearly double the number who died in Vietnam. More than 1,000,000 have perished since 2000, thanks largely to an explosion of fentanyl and other addictive opioids. But fentanyl, abundant methamphetamine, and other lethal drugs are not the only things that are killing us: our policy is. So far, America has lacked the will to do better. That must change, and this book tells us how.No one is immune, which is why Kevin Sabet has authored this remarkable book. Sabet, dubbed the "the quarterback of the new anti-drug movement" by Salon, has spent most of his life battling the destructive effects of drugs. In One Nation Under the Influence, he asks hard questions and provides clear answers, taking listeners from the streets of San Francisco and New York to the southern border, up to Canada, and across to Europe to show how we can chart a necessary way forward. The solutions are out there, if only we have the will to apply them.
