Opium and the Opium Appetite is a comprehensive study of the effects of opium and other substances on the human body, written by Alonzo Calkins and originally published in 1871. The book explores the history, cultivation, and use of opium, as well as its effects on the mind and body. It also includes information on other substances that were commonly used during this time period, such as alcohol, cannabis, tobacco, coca, tea, and coffee. Calkins examines the hygienic aspects and pathologic relations of each substance, discussing their benefits and drawbacks, as well as their potential for addiction and abuse. The book provides a detailed look at the social and cultural contexts in which these substances were used, and offers insights into the ways in which they affected individuals and society as a whole.
