From the Back Cover
“The authors practice and many years of work in the substance abuse field is evident by his inclusion of many discreet, important, yet generally overlooked areas, whether in his helpful hints or in his identification and discussion of special populations.”
Scarlett A. Benjamin, Keuka College
“It is gratifying to see a text emerge that is comprehensive in its emphasis on treatment, rather than focusing primarily on pharmacology and brain chemistry.”
Peggy D. Campbell, Florence Darlington Technical College
