    About this ebook

    Accurately details the history of laughing gas
    through to modern times (including historical ramblings & jest), and delves
    into the medical side of things     – in a light-hearted manner. Finally, while it never promotes nor condones the use of this
    fascinating substance and clearly highlights the serious dangers of its
    consumption, Laughing Gas suggests scientifically based means of
    ameliorating – preventing – the known negative possible effects of its
    consumption.

      The evils of the drug war can be seen merely by considering the way we look at laughing gas in America. As I type this, the US is getting ready to outlaw its use. And yet this same country claims to be bothered by the increase in suicide ? Americans have lost their mind to the drug war ideology of substance demonization. A suicidal person should have laughing gas on hand just as an allergic person has an EPI pen standing by. But materialist science is unmoved by laughter. It wants to see chemical proof of action, and so obvious therapies are invisible. Even the authors of this book are blind to this situation, because their publicity says that they would never in a million years promote the USE of laughing gas. And why not? The only answer seems to be that the drug war is more important to Americans than saving lives. And what about academic freedom? William James told his colleagues that they SHOULD use laughing gas to get philosophical insights. Laughing gas helped James understand what was wrong with Hegel's philosophy. See James' book "The Will to Believe" for more on this.
      The drug war has blinded America to the obvious and laughing gas is the most obvious case of this. And yet drug-war propaganda, from cradle to grave, has caused even authors on this subject to write apologetically and on the back foot. It's just irrational fear. If they were writing a book about horses, would they assure their readers that they were not attempting to promote horseback riding? After all, horse riding is by far the number-one cause of traumatic brain injury in America.
