Books in the Routledge Library Editions: Addictions series

Originally published in 1983, in an attempt to provide a broader knowledge base to aid both treatment and prevention, experts examine topics such as the need for an holistic approach to therapy, sexual functioning, drug abusing youths in inner city neighbourhoods, the role of the family, and much more.

Biochemical level, alcohol and other drugs of abuse can impair metabolic and neuropsychiatric functions. Epidemiological studies also demonstrate that even moderate drinking or drug abuse can produce significant brain damage. First published in 1980, this book draws together biochemical, physiological and clinical research on these topics.

Routledge Library Editions: Addictions brings together as one set, or individual volumes, a small series of six previously out-of-print titles, originally published between 1980 and 1995. The set covers a variety of perspectives and looks at a range of addictions including alcoholism, drug abuse and gambling.

Originally published in 1991, this volume brings together the full variety of scientific approaches to addiction behaviour. It broke new ground by highlighting the links between clinical work, training and research and proposes a way forward towards integrated treatment interventions.

Originally published in 1984, this book was designed to provide broad coverage of psychopharmacology, with the minimum necessary focus on basic pharmacology and with carefully chosen subjects, which are still likely to be of interest to psychology undergraduates and in which good empirical work is available for discussion at that level.

Originally published in 1995, this title provides a practical examination of the problems of substance abuse and abuse among persons with chronic mental disorders.
