Описание: Smoking tobacco presents serious social problems with major impacts on public health. It is estimated that 25-30% of the general population in western countries are currently smoking. Tobacco use is the major preventable cause of death in the United States, responsible for more than 400,000 deaths annually. Within the USA and Europe, 70% of all smokers have tried to quit smoking at least once, but only about 6% of these succeeded in maintaining abstinence. This book covers the latest nicotine-related research. The selection of chapters has a certain unity as physiologic, pathologic and psychological themes run through the book and supply the logical connections between the various authors. This work is intended as a contribution to the reversal of the current tobacco epidemic and thereby to preventing many of the deaths attributable to tobacco predicted in this century.

Описание: Designed to support students entering the helping professions, Addiction: A Human Experience fosters greater awareness of those who develop substance abuse problems and the experience of treating individuals with addiction issues. The book provides a basic overview of the addiction process with special emphasis on what the experience is like for individuals suffering from addiction. The book examines why people form addictions, the counselor's role in helping, how addiction affects thinking, the family's role when a member becomes addicted, the typical recovery process, and harm reduction and relapse prevention. Numerous case examples serve to illustrate real-world experiences with addiction and the recovery process. Other topics covered include twelve-step and other sober support groups, romantic relationships in early recovery, addiction as a family disease, process addictions, co-occurring disorders, and more. The third edition includes new information regarding addiction to social media and smartphones, modern cognitive approaches for addiction treatment, and fighting temptation and increasing word power. Supporting articles and case studies have been updated and the coverage of harm reduction has been significantly expanded. Designed to supplement standard psychology textbooks addressing substance abuse, Addiction: A Human Experience gives readers a deeper understanding of—and compassion for—those seeking treatment for addiction.

Описание: Substance abuse treatment in the U.S. is not a smooth continuum of services available to all those who seek them. This speaks to the importance of this comprehensive guide, which evaluates and summarizes all available substance abuse treatment settings and approaches, including in-patient, outpatient, 12-step programs, and more. It looks at the simplest of treatments (brief interventions) to the most intensive and expensive types of inpatient treatment programs. This text provides a clear and succinct review of different types of treatment, addresses controversies over ""best practices,"" and examines their effectiveness with a variety of populations. It also closely examines research findings and their applicability for improving substance abuse treatment in the future.Key Features:A comprehensive and practical guide to the field of substance abuse treatmentOffers an overview of national, state, and local prevention effortsIncludes chapters on substance abuse treatment with special populations including children/adolescents, women, the elderly, and criminal offendersTranslates complex research findings into an easily understandable format
