About this title

Synopsis

This student text covers all aspects of working with drug and substance misusers in the UK, including the history and changes in policy on substance misuse and the differences between working with young and adult clients. Recent UK government initiatives and legislative changes are carefully outlined, while discussions on why people take drugs, the policy implications of harm reduction, and abstinence approaches to substance use/misuse are related back to practice so that readers understand how to engage with the client group and the reasons for varying success across treatment approaches.

About the Author

He developed a continuing interest in this client group and now runs a Masters applied criminology programme at Middlesex University and also teaches in social work.
