Georgia Southern University faculty member Laura E. Agnich authored “Methadone Control Act” and “Aviation Drug-Trafficking Control Act” in the publication Encyclopedia of Drug Policy.

Book Summary: Spanning two volumes of approximately 450 entries in an A-to-Z format, this encyclopedia explores the controversial drug war through the lens of varied disciplines. A full spectrum of articles explains topics from Colombian cartels and Mexican kingpins to television reportage; from "just say no" advertising to heroin production; and from narco-terrorism to more than $500 billion in U.S. government expenditures.
