Bowker Biography:
David R. Ford

 

By the time Dave Ford graduated from high school he had already published his own newspaper, produced elaborate stage shows, created and hosted a popular radio show, and interviewed legendary Hollywood stars including Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. He smoked his first joint at age 17 — and in a single hour wrote the speech that won him a bi-state oratory contest against 12,000 rivals. (Adult Dave is against teenagers using any drug, including marijuana) He has used pot to prime his creativity in enterprises ranging from building homes, to wildly popular television shows for the CBS affiliate in Hawaii, to a thriving import business, to an innovative advertising agency. His disappointments were more exciting than most people's successes.

Dave has flown his own airplanes over 5,000 hours, made a record-breaking ocean dive to further research by the University of Hawaii. His new book, Good Medicine, Great Sex! tells of these, and hi his other chilling encounters in rural Taiwan and urban Indonesia, a tidal wave, a major earthquake, an erupting volcano, cancer, and the tragic death of the love of his life.

In his previous book, Marijuana: Not Guilty As Charged, Ford made a compelling case that, far from being a dangerous drug with no medical value, Cannabis is for many people the only effective treatment for a wide variety of illnesses — and all but harmless. Good Medicine, Great Sex! uses his own enthralling life history — to demonstrate that grass is a source of creativity, passion, and prosperity.
