This book I bought for one Euro from among the books that were being removed from the library's collection. Contrary to most such books, it was not falling apart, dog-eared, or marked up by former readers. In fact, it looked like nobody had ever borrowed it, which may be why it was being removed.
Rather than considering it obsolete, I find the book's age extra interesting. Every once in a while an article pops up in newspapers about the benzos as though some new fact about them was uncovered, whereas this book demonstrates that all these things were already well-known twenty years ago.
Each chapter except the last is written in the style of an article for a medical journal, and authored by a different researcher. The book is chock-full of molecule structures, drawings, illustrations, diagrams, tables, charts, graphs, and electronmicroscopic autoradiograms. It is not always clear whether these refer to people or rats.
