Description

An up-to-date guide to the causes, diagnosis, and treatment of addictions. Whether it's to caffeine, nicotine, or alcohol, many of us suffer from at least one addiction. Carlton K. Erickson presents a comprehensive overview of the various types of addictions-covering both substance and nonsubstance addictions such as gambling, Internet use, and video games-and their diagnosis and treatment.

Reviews

Only now is science catching up with clinicians and sober/abstinent addicts to explain how addiction, abuse, and recovery work. Erickson's seminal guide allies the science to practice: clinicians and scientists alike should read it in order to start a new dialogue of wisdom with each other and increase recovery exponentially.--Deirdre Boyd, editor of "AddictionToday" and CEO of Addiction Recovery Foundation
