title: Drug abuse: a manifestation of the cyclic nature of human behavior.
abstract: The authors conclude that a cyclic pattern of drug use behavior can be documented in a given population. While such a study provides a microcosmic view of such behavior, it is postulated that this same cyclic pattern was experienced in the macrocosm of society at large by drug-abusing populations over centuries past.
