Cannabis Is Medicine tells it like it is. For far too long the important medicinal potential of the cannabis plant has been at least overlooked, and at worst, aggressively stigmatized. The incredible potential of cannabis derivatives across a wide panorama of medical conditions is now widely embraced by highly respected science. And Dr. Bonni Goldstein has done a magnificent job of eloquently presenting this science to augment our tools as healthcare providers as well as for consumers at large. A powerful validation of the healing properties of cannabis. - David Perlmutter, MD, bestselling author of Grain Brain and Brain Wash
