    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

    #1 As the two countries struggled with the same question - could cannabis cause mental illness and violence. - Indians and Mexicans had very different opinions on the matter. Mexicans believed that marijuana caused madness and violence, while Indians saw it as a useful drug.

    #2 In 1920, the Mexican government found that marijuana was one of the most pernicious manias of their people, and not a medicine. They banned its sale.

    #3 In India, the British colonial government noticed a connection between cannabis and mental illness. They believed that the habit caused insanity, and they wanted to tax it to discourage consumption.

    #4 The Indian Hemp Drugs Commission, which was a British government panel, found in 1894 that cannabis did not cause insanity or violence. However, two of the three Indian members disagreed, and said that the government should tax and regulate cannabis.
