Now in a revised and expanded third edition, this authoritative clinical reference and text presents state-of-the-science knowledge about all aspects of addictive disorders and their treatment. Leading researchers and practitioners describe best practices in assessment and diagnosis and provide the latest information on working with users of specific substances. Issues in working with particular populations--including culturally diverse patients, women, and older adults--are thoroughly addressed, and widely used psychosocial and pharmacological treatment approaches are reviewed. Featuring expanded coverage of comorbidity and dual diagnosis, the third edition includes entirely new chapters on the neuroscientific basis of addiction, addiction to gambling and to pain medications, and substance abuse in the workplace, as well as a chapter on dialectical behavior therapy.

Super fast shipping! Great product! You saved my grade by shipping so fast! Thanks a million!!!
By G. Stratton
This books contains a collection of articles on different topics written by different authors. This is normal for the field of psychology, but it does not work so well in this volume. Some of the chapters contradict each other. And the authors vary widely in scienticity. Some of the authors cite extensive rigorous research to back up their points. Others cite theories and ideas (many of their own) instead of any of the copious amounts of research on the topic (that sometimes contradicts their ideas). The editors could have done a better job selecting chapter authors who used the same standard of research. To its credit, it does cover a wide range of topics and some of the individual chapters are very informative and well researched.

If you desire to have knowledge of addictive disorders then this book is a must read. Its comprehensive, written well, and packed with useful and extremely practical information. It covers history, diagnosi, disorders, treatment and much much more. Highly recommended if you are to be a well read and effective clinician or just want in depth information from an incredible amount of experts in the field.
By GusEmery (Arroyo Grande, CA USA)
This book has some very good sections mixed with average, repetitive sections. Some chapters appear almost verbatim in other text books. I have been able to use it as a reference for writing papers but other than that it's a book that you can pass over.
