Synopsis

Drug addiction as a brain disease is this book's theme. In clear scientific terms - with many striking examples from the author's experience as a scientist and clinician - it describes the nature of chemical addiction and addictive behaviour, the seven families of addictive drugs, and the muddied effort to develop effective drug control policies and laws.
