Reviews

Comprehensive in scope and detail...The detailed descriptions of how the drugs are abused, their physiological and psychological effects, and the withdrawal symptoms will be especially useful...A very useful reference.--American Pharmacy For students and practitioners in the health professions and for educators, this is an excellent book for general reference.--American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education This publication would be informative to most anyone whose field is related to the usage of drugs. It would be of great interest to anyone who answers drug information calls, treats drug abusers, or leads public discussions on drug usage in our society.--Drug Intelligence and Clinical Pharmacy This work is an excellent reference text for both professionals and non-professionals in many disciplines.--Journal of Studies on Alcohol
