Synopsis

The misuse of alcohol, drugs and tobacco poses problems of international importance, to which much research is devoted. Basic research is directed at the psychological, biological and genetic basis of substance dependence, but valuable contributions also arise from the fields of social science, economics and historical scholarship. How can the findings of this research be translated into effective policies? This book explores ways of building better bridges beween the scientific and policy worlds in the field of substance abuse. Subjects discussed include the responsiveness of science to changing policy demands, prevention in different substance fields, treatment policies, issues of legalization, and prospects for future developments. The contributors are leading authorities from many countries, with experience in treatment work, pure and administrative research, and dialogue with government.
