Oxford Handbook Of Addiction Medicine
Paperback Edition: 3
The ability to diagnose addictive disorders and initiate appropriate management is a responsibility for all health professionals.Addiction Medicine, now in its third edition and published in the renowned Oxford Medical Handbook series, is the result of many years' preparation by a group of colleagues who are clinicians, teachers, and researchers in the addictive disorders field. The handbook is a contemporary, broadly-based, and clinically grounded text that summarises the scientific basis and practice of addiction medicine. It provides practical guidance on clinical management but with a sound background of pharmacology, neurobiology, psychology, and epidemiology and public health. It seeks to provide approaches to minimising harm from psychoactive substances and addictive behaviours, both at an individual and a societal level. The new edition has been expanded greatly. In addition to the behavioural addictions, it covers a broader range of psychoactive substances.
