Weed: Everything You Want to Know But Are Always Too Stoned to Ask (Revised Edition)

This fun illustrated guide to weed lays out the science, slang, and social rules behind the high in an informative yet endearingly irreverent way.

Bringing clarity and humor to every corner of weed culture, this book by counterculture journalist Michelle Lhooq features information-packed spreads that break down how the cannabis plant works and visually sorts through all of the ways weed is smoked, vaped, dabbed, and eaten.

Playful illustrations by artist Thu Tran cover plant anatomy, bongs, bubblers, vapes, hash, and everything in between.  Thrilling encounters with famous stoners, such as Hollywood star Woody Harrelson, music pioneer Lee “Scratch” Perry, and writer Tao Lin provide tips on living the high life in style.

Through insightful interviews with experts in various fields, from a weed sommelier to a “cannasexual” sex educator to a pot-inspired fashion designer, the book explores weed’s role in style and social life. It also looks at snapshots of scenes around the world, from Barcelona's cannabis clubs to Thailand’s folk traditions and Mexico’s history of pot protests.
