Paperback. Condition: Used: Acceptable. The Open University's ``Education for Health'' course is devoted to the principles and practice of preventitive medicine. This Reader, the second in the series written in association with the Health Education Authority, surveys several different approaches to the prevention of drug abuse. Contributors discuss use, misuse, and preventitive strategies for barbituates, tranquilizers, alcohol, smoking, and other substances. Most people use drugs, whether alcohol, tobacco, tranquillisers or painkillers. Sadly, widespread drug use is associated with a huge toll of adverse consequences, including drug dependence, harmful physical side-effects, public order offences and many social problems. This selective and highly informative guide to the drug field has been produced with a view to training members of the health care professions in the subject of drug abuse. It combines research findings with practical issues, and in doing so presents a comprehensive overview of the background to the subject.
