This book, authored by Ken Yates, delves into the operations and impact of Needle and Syringe Programs (NSPs) as a harm reduction strategy for people who inject drugs, focusing on staff-client relationships. Situated in Western Sydney, Australia, it explores the socio-political dynamics, challenges, and effectiveness of NSPs in addressing public health issues like Hepatitis C and illicit drug use. The work employs an assemblage theory approach, examining the interconnectedness of human and non-human elements in service provision. Aimed at scholars and the general public, it offers insights into the complexities of harm reduction and critiques conventional views on drug-related harm.
