Holmes and Watson: Studies in Addiction
Notas do episódio
"I was well aware that the fiend was not dead, but sleeping" [MISS] Sherlock Holmes infamously used cocaine. Indeed, his habit was such that Dr. Watson, both as a friend and a medical man, was concerned for his health. But addictions in the Canon go beyond that. In this month's "Mr. Sherlock Holmes the Theorist" episode, we turn our attention to Baker Street Miscellanea No. 42 (Summer 1985) in which Robert S. Katz turned his own medical mind to the attention of Holmes's and Watson's addictions, and how they may have been inextricably linked. And it's just a Trifle.
