From the Back Cover

Under the direction of a new lead editor and team, the Sixth Edition of The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Substance Use Disorder Treatment has been completely revised and restructured and represents the cutting edge of research, practice, and policy in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. A one-stop reference for evidence-based information on neurobiology, assessment, treatment, and research trends in SUDs, the book is an indispensable resource for trainees and veteran clinicians alike. Noteworthy additions are the new and substantive sections on public health issues and comorbidities, the expanded coverage of cannabis (encompassing neurobiology, the latest treatment approaches and harm-reduction strategies, and cannabis policy and public health perspectives), and the new chapters on digitally delivered therapies and behavioral addictive disorders (e.g., gambling disorder, compulsive internet use). As a complement to the contributions of distinguished luminaries in the field, dozens of new contributors have been added to the roster, for fresh and diverse viewpoints on topics old and new. The end result is a volume that is dynamic, comprehensive, and sure to become a classic.

The most authoritative reference for clinicians and researchers in the field of addiction and an excellent manual for residents in psychiatry, general medicine, and allied fields, The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Substance Use Disorder Treatment will engage, enlighten, and inform.
