Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs by Johann Hari | Bestselling Addiction & Society Book

A powerful, deeply researched investigation into the real causes of addiction and the failures of the global war on drugs, by bestselling author Johann Hari. A must-read for students, healthcare workers, policymakers, and curious readers in Bangladesh interested in psychology, addiction, and social justice.

"Chasing the Scream" by Johann Hari, the internationally bestselling author of "Lost Connections" and "Stolen Focus," takes readers on a three-year journey across nine countries to uncover the hidden truths about drug addiction and the war on drugs. Through gripping true stories — from a scientist in Vancouver to a doctor in Arizona to a gang leader's family in Mexico — Hari challenges everything we think we know about addiction, showing it isn't simply about chemical hooks, but about disconnection, trauma, and unmet human needs.

This eye-opening book reveals why the century-long war on drugs has failed so profoundly and offers radical, evidence-based alternatives that have worked in countries like Portugal. For readers in Bangladesh interested in psychology, public health, criminal justice, or social policy, this book provides a compelling, humane lens on one of the most misunderstood issues in modern society — essential reading for students, healthcare professionals, and socially-conscious readers alike.
