MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: From the Western countries a new dangerous phenomenon is approaching the Central and Eastern Europe. The pressure on psychical performance while studying and at work is becoming that hard that many individuals are reaching for stimulants. When cigarettes, coffee and energy drinks do not help anymore, the next in row are compulsory prescription drugs, which have been developed for entirely different purposes and which can sometimes have far-reaching lifelong consequences for the health. This phenomenon is called brain doping or cognitive enhancement.
