This is an important contribution to studies of the international drug trade providing broad and interlocking new insights into the fentanyl trade. This will be an important reference point for scholars and students of drug trafficking in the first half of the Twenty-First Century.

This volume is a timely and comprehensive examination of the fentanyl crisis in all its dimensions. Jonathan Rosen and Sebastián Cutrona have given us a stellar collection of research-based pieces and essays that show the phenomenon's current complexity. From its recent history to the public health consequences to the political maneuvering that has prevented sound policy responses, Fentanyl, from labs to the streets shows that high demand for the product will continue to make this a thriving business for criminal organizations as long as we continue ignoring the human agonies feeding its demand.
