520 "According to the CDC, between 1999 and 2017, more than
700,000 Americans died as a result of drug overdose. In
2017, the number of overdose deaths involving opioids
(including prescription opioids and illegal opioids such
as heroin and illicitly manufactured fentanyl) was 6 times
higher than in 1999. The news is rife with stories
surrounding the opioid crisis-from settlements with drug
companies, to effective treatment options-even the
resistance among museums to accept donations from the
Sackler family (which built its fortune on pharmaceutical
sales of OxyContin). What was once perceived as a marginal
problem has now entered the mainstream, and this book
looks at its rise. Nancy Campbell, professor and
department head in STS at RPI, traces the history of
overdose and overdose prevention. Her research centers on
how ideas about drugs and drug addiction have changed over
time. She wants to know what we actually know about drug
addiction, and how we know it. Why do we have the drug
policies that we do? And why do we consider some drugs to
cause social problems, and others to solve them. Most
importantly, Campbell asks, why did it take tens of
thousands of opioid-related overdose deaths annually
before a movement rose up to put this technology into the
hands of those who needed it most? The book centers around
the political contexts within which overdose and overdose
prevention became problems that could be solved with a
technological fix. As is the case with all such fixes, the
social, political, and economic terrain within which they
are implemented matter for their success. The book
provides an accessible history of how naloxone works in
the United States and the United Kingdom, both places that
have experienced exponential increases in overdose deaths
during the early 21st century (albeit at different
scales). As a historical book, it interweaves the story of
naloxone's predecessor, nalorphine, with the story of the
pharmacological dynamics of the so-called narcotic
antagonists. All of the technical terms involved-agonists,
antagonists, opioids, and opiates, are clearly defined in
the introduction, and in punchy, non-technical prose at
that. But it is the story of the protagonists--the people
of naloxone--that matters most to Campbell. The
protagonists of these social and scientific movements have
broadened naloxone access, changing law, medicine, and
society--and have saved countless lives. This book, then,
traces the story of a single molecule through its multiple
social lives, from the enclaves of its past into the wider
worlds of its present. We're starting to see a number of
books on the market about this epidemic, but what Campbell
is doing here is looking specifically at the social
movement (the harm reduction movement) aimed at preventing
preventable deaths, and the role Naloxone has played in
those efforts. Campbell concludes on a powerful note,
pointing out that even though we have a technology that
can help stop-in-its tracks sudden death, until we start
really examining the root causes and circumstances
surrounding the rise in opioid abuse and uptake in the
first place, this problem is going nowhere"--|cProvided by
