"""Emmelkamp and Vedel’s new text gives hope to the substance abusing individual and evidence-based guidance to the treating therapist. It is well worth reading."" – David W. Hunt, Journal of Addictive Diseases 'The Authors have carefully assessed the research evidence in the field selecting what really matters to the clinician. They have provided clear and practical descriptions of the treatment approaches which may affect the course of alcohol and drug abuse. The book is a must for anyone working in the field and a superb synthesis of clinical wisdom and research understanding.' - Giovanni A. Fava, Editor-in-Chief of Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics ""[The authors] have set out to show in an evidence-based textbook that substance abuse and dependence are clearly treatable disorders of the mind. The husband and wife authors have collated and reviewed an enormous amount of basic research in an attempt to be a comprehensive and critical review of the latest research on substances, their abuse, and their fundamental treatment. Emmelkamp and Vedel's new text gives hope to the substance abusing individual and evidence-based guidance to the treating therapist. It is well worth the reading."" - David W. Hunt, MS, DO, FACOFP, ASAM, Journal of Addictive Diseases"
