520    "As a youth, Carl Hart didn't realize the value of school;
       he studied just enough to stay on the basketball team. At 
       the same time, he was immersed in street life. Today he is
       a cutting-edge neuroscientist--Columbia University's first
       tenured African American professor in the sciences--whose 
       landmark, controversial research is redefining our 
       understanding of addiction. In this provocative and eye-
       opening memoir, he recalls his journey of self-discovery 
       and weaves his past and present. Hart goes beyond the hype
       of the antidrug movement as he examines the relationship 
       among drugs, pleasure, choice, and motivation, both in the
       brain and in society. His findings shed new light on 
       common ideas about race, poverty, and drugs, and explain 
       why current policies are failing. Though Hart escaped 
       neighborhoods that were dominated by entrenched poverty 
       and the knot of problems associated with it, he has not 
       turned his back on his roots. Determined to make a 
       difference, he tirelessly applies his scientific research 
       to help save real lives. But balancing his former street 
       life with his achievements today has not been easy--a 
       struggle he reflects on publicly for the first time. A 
       powerful story of hope and change, of a scientist who has 
       dedicated his life to helping others, High Price will 
       alter the way we think about poverty, race, and addiction-
       -and how we can effect change."--Publisher's description.
