Weed, Inc.: The Truth About THC, the Pot Lobby, and the Commercial Marijuana Industry by Ben Cort

Not every book on this shelf is cheering for the industry. Ben Cort has spent years in addiction treatment, and he campaigned against legalisation in Colorado. This is his case against big commercial weed.

He goes after the THC lobby, the lack of federal oversight in the US, rising potency, pesticide use and the energy cost of growing indoors. You don’t have to agree with him to find it worth reading. It’s the other side of the debate.

Why We Love It

• A sceptical take on the commercial cannabis industry
