Description: Although snorting and smoking heroin are increasingly popular methods of use, most addicts eventually begin injecting the drug intravenously. This powerful book looks at the path that heroin takes from needle to vein and through the bloodstream. Vivid photos and accessible text show the damage that heroin use does to the most important body systems.
