Reviews

[Skirmantė Rugsėjis · Rating 3 out of 5]

Tai pažintinė knyga , kurioje pristatomi populiariausi narkotikai , pateikiama faktų ir pavyzdžių , savo istorijomis dalijasi tiek vartoję žmonės , tiek gydytojai , policininkai .
Knygelė labai trumpa ir glausta , tad daug žinių čia nesutalpinta , bet vis dėlto tai šioks toks pagalbinis kūrinys norint susidaryti aiškesnį vaizdą apie narkotines medžiagas .

Um livro bom, dá perfeitamente para ter uma relativa noção do assunto. Muitos assuntos do livro, para mim, deviam ser mais debatidos nos estabelecimentos de ensino...
