| Synopsis: |
In The Selfish Brain, Second Edition Dr. DuPont reflects current knowledge and modern practices to lead the way for the future. This book is informed by prevention, intervention, treatment, and social change statistical data gathered in the 20 years since its first release to present a clear and practical overview of substance-related disorders. Long considered one of the most comprehensive works on substance abuse and addiction, The Selfish Brain was one of the first books to demonstrate the effect a substance use disorder has on the part of the body it targets first: the brain. The Selfish Brain also explores how addiction ripples through families, cultures, and history, and explains the influence of public policy on social patterns of substance use. Dr. Robert L. DuPont's groundbreaking research combines the science, sociology, and humanity of addiction that makes us understand it for what it is: a disease. Fully revised and updated, this second edition captures how principles of prevention, intervention, treatment, and public policy have evolved in the twenty years since the book's first release. The result is a clear and practical overview of substance-related disorders.Capturing drug-specific information and trends, Dr. DuPont reflects current knowledge and modern practices to lead the way for the future. |
