Sherlock, Sheilas, and the Seven-Percent Solution — Stephanie Osborn

Sherlock Holmes, the world's first consulting detective, the most popular fictional character in history - and admitted drug abuser. Have you ever wondered why? Surely such a brilliant mind wasn't in it for the "high" alone - was he? What about the side effects? Was there a benefit to its use that Watson couldn't tell us because of the mores of his day? Sherlock, Sheilas and the Seven-Percent Solution explores, and perhaps answers, all these questions, and more.
