Cannabis has been used as a drug since antiquity – but only recently has it progressed to become one of the most exciting medical-pharmaceutical topics of our times. In scarcely any other area of pharmacotherapy has the state of knowledge recently developed at comparable speed. Experts from a variety of fields are constantly working to generate new scientific evidence for the therapeutic use of cannabis and/or cannabinoids and to provide patients with quality-assured medicinal cannabis. This book is the first to give representatives of all relevant areas of expertise the chance to speak. Alongside medical-therapeutic aspects, they address such questions as cultivation, quality assurance, patient care practices and patient counselling. The result of this accumulated knowledge and skill is a unique overall picture that, for the first time, combines and consolidates the current legal and scientific framework of medicinal cannabis provision! All facts have been painstakingly researched and checked. The result is a scientifically valid work, which sets the standard. This excellent compendium is indispensable for everyone who comes into contact with cannabis for professional or personal reasons.

What we know,what we need to know
by Peter Cremer-Schaeffer
For the current German government coalition the legalisation of cannabis is a done deal. Over the course of the legislative period, the possibility is to be created of providing adults with a controlled supply of cannabis for recreational purposes. But regardless of that, the health consequences of cannabis use remain controversial. In his book, the author debates the state of opinion. What findings on cannabis are definite today, and which questions remain unanswered? He also takes stock of the use of cannabis for medicinal purposes, which has been legal for years. Whether about the plant, its effects on body and mind or the legal situation in other countries, anyone who wishes to have a well-considered say on the topic of cannabis needs to read this book.

June 1990Traditionen Humboldts
by Jürgen Trabant
Das Sprachdenken Wilhelm von Humboldts, das im Verlauf der Geschichte von Sprachphilosophie und Linguistik durch reduktionistische Lektüren vor allem dazu gedient hat, die disparatesten theoretischen Unternehmungen zu legitimieren, wird in den letzten Jahren zunehmend aus seinem spezifischen philosophischen und wissenschaftlichen Kontext rekonstruiert und als Ganzes rezipiert, das heißt als einzigartige synthetische Verbindung transzendentalphilosophischer Reflexion in der Nachfolge Kants mit empirischer sprachwissenschaftlicher Forschung. Der Reichtum des Humboldtschen Sprachdenkens verdankt sich der Vielzahl von Traditionen, die in diesem anthropologisch-linguistischen Projekt zusammenlaufen, sowie der Art und Weise, wie Humboldt diese Traditionen verarbeitet. Einige Linien deses Geflechts der verschiedensten sprachphilosophischen und linguistischen Fragestellungen, die zu Humboldt hinführen, aber auch solche Diskussionsstränge, die von ihm ausgehen, werden in Traditionen Humboldts nachgezeichnet. Bei diesen um Humboldt als Zentrum kreisenden Erkundungen wird auf die Beziehungen zu solchen Autoren und Fragestellungen besonderer Wert gelegt, die bisher weniger beachtet worden sind, wie etwa das Verhältnis zu Leibniz, zu Vico, zu Hegel oder wie die Fragen nach der Entstehung neuer Sprachen und der Rolle des Hörens oder wie Humboldts grammatologische Überlegungen. Jürgen Trabant, geb. 1942, ist Professor für romanische Sprachwissenschaft an der Freien Universität Berlin. Veröffentlichungen: Zur Semiologie des literarischen Kunstwerks (1970); Elemente der Semiotik (1976); (Hg. zus. m. A. Eschbach) History of Semiotics (1973); (Hg.) Wilhelm von Humboldt: Über die Sprache (1985); (Hg. zus. m. W. Busse) Les Idéologues (1986); Apeliotes oder Der Sinn der Sprache (1986); (Hg.) Beiträge zur Geschichte der romanischen Philologie in Berlin (1987); Zeichen des Menschen (1989); Aufsätze zur Textlinguistik, Semiotik, Sprachphilosophie und Geschichte der Sprachwissenschaft; Herausgeber der semiotischen Zeitschrift Kodikas/Code.
