Reviews

Essentially, I believe that Jerry Lowney has achieved some unique feats in social science research and in the field of addiction studies. It should be a valuable example for use in courses on social science methodology. For courses on social problems, alcohol and drug addiction, deviance, and the family, it should provide a very valuable case study. The appropriate people need to know about this unique book.--Robert Straus
