Synopsis

Most people use drugs, whether alcohol, tobacco, tranquillisers or painkillers. Sadly, widespread drug use is associated with a huge toll of adverse consequences, including drug dependence, harmful physical side-effects, public order offences and many social problems. This selective and highly informative guide to the drug field has been produced with a view to training members of the health care professions in the subject of drug abuse. It combines research findings with practical issues, and in doing so presents a comprehensive overview of the background to the subject.
