Ce livre bilingue traite d'un sujet brûlant d'actualité au Canada : le cannabis. Mais il aborde plus précisément les variétés non psychotropes de la plante, celles qu'on appelle communément le chanvre industriel. Dans un effort de synthèse et de vulgarisation, l'auteur dresse un panorama de cette plante utilisée par l'être humain depuis que ce dernier a inventé l'agriculture. Existe-t-il une difference entre le cannabis et le chanvre? Cette discussion fera l'objet des premières pages de l'ouvrage. Puis l'auteur nous fait plonger dans la riche histoire de la plante vue d'une perspective nord-américaine, pour ensuite nous présenter les aspects botaniques et agronomiques et, enfin, aboutir aux principaux usages de cette plante aux mille et une facettes. Ce livre vous informera et vous divertira. Parfois controversé et assurément sous-estimé, le chanvre gagne à être connu. Il est temps de lui redonner ses lettres de noblesse.



This bilingual book deals with a hot topic in Canada: cannabis. It goes into detail about non-psychotropic varieties of the plant, more commonly known as industrial hemp. In an effort to summarize his findings, the author draws an overview of the plant, which has been used by humans since the invention of agriculture. In the first part of the book, the author examines various misconceptions surrounding hemp. He then delves into its rich history from a North American perspective. The following pages present the various botanical and agronomical aspects of this versatile plant before exploring its main uses. This book aims to inform and entertain its readers. Although sometimes controversial and often underestimated, hemp deserves to be known and brought back to its former glory.
