The Pursuit of Pleasure
Drugs and Stimulants in Iranian History, 1500-1900
From ancient times to the present day, Iranian social, political, and economic life has been dramatically influenced by psychoactive agents. This book looks at the stimulants that, as put by a longtime resident of seventeenth-century Iran, Raphael du Mans, provided Iranians with damagh, gave them a 'kick', got them into a good mood.
