{"product_id":"9783031878206","title":"On the Moral Right to Get High","description":"\u003cp\u003eIs getting high immoral?  In this book, Rob Lovering defends the claim that it is not.  More specifically, he argues that recreational drug use (of which getting high is a token) is neither intrinsically, nor generally extrinsically, immoral.  In other words, he contends that recreational drug use is neither immoral in and of itself nor generally immoral due to an immoral-making factor with which it may be contingently linked [e.g., harm].  Lovering does so by offering two arguments for recreational drug use s ultima facie (all things considered) moral permissibility and critiquing twenty-four arguments for its immorality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeant to be a companion to Lovering's A Moral Defense of Recreational Drug Use (Palgrave Macmillan, 2015), which was written for a general audience, this book is written for an academic specifically, philosophical audience and explores recreational drug use in a deeper, more philosophically and empirically rigorous way.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
