"Drugs That Enslave: The Opium, Morphine, Chloral and Hashish Habits" by H. H. Kane, M.D. is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book addresses the dangerous habits associated with narcotics like opium and morphine, exploring addiction, effects on the body and mind, and the social implications of these substances. It likely aims to educate medical professionals and the public about the growing issues related to drug habits in that era. The opening of the work establishes a somber tone, emphasizing the increased prevalence of addiction in a rapidly modernizing society. Kane discusses the alarming statistics regarding the rise in opium and morphine usage, highlighting the drug's ability to enslave users who become increasingly dependent on it for relief from their physical and emotional ailments. He delves into the physical and psychological toll it takes on individuals, describing the harrowing conditions and torments faced by those entrenched in such habits and pointing to a disturbing societal trend where good lives are often ruined by these substances.
