"The Emperor Wears No Clothes" von Jack Herer ist ein beherztes, gleichzeitig gut dokumentiertes Buch über die Geschichte der Hanfpflanze mit besonderem Augenmerk auf das erste Verbot und die darauf folgende Prohibition.
Herer beweist sein Wissen über Hanf, seine Konsumformen und Geschichte. Nach der ersten Ausgabe des Buches 1985 wurde Herer damals auch Namensgeber für eine Hanfsorte, eine Auszeichnung, die nur wenige Menschen erhalten haben. (ENGLISCH)
Jack Herer has continued to update his authoritative history of hemp’s myriad of uses, and of the war on this plant, just as it has become high-profile news, with loyal supporters such as actor Woody Harrelson.
Herer thoroughly documents the petrochemical industry’s plot to outlaw this renewable source of paper, energy, food, textiles, and medicine. Throughout the book he includes useful photos, illustrations & charts to support and prove his argument.
Herer writes with passion and gusto on a subject with which he is clearly enamoured. The book is brimming with interesting facts and conspiracy theories surrounding hemp, its initial and continued prohibition.
This book helped kick start the Hemp movement in the mid 1980s when hemp was increasingly being seen as a plant that produced illegal "marijuana" rather than as a valuable resource. Hemp is now grown throughout Europe for many uses under government licences.
