In this study of "at large" amphetamine drug peddlers and their clientele in Oklahoma City, the author observes, contrary to some medical opinion, that illicit traffic in these drugs is brisk, widespread in the area, and not without consequence to the indiscriminate user. An unexpected finding was that amphetamine psychosis is neither uncommon nor merely confined to borderline psychotic individuals.
