Title: Psychology of addiction.
First published: 1994
Description: This series of books on contemporary psychological issues is aimed primarily at students beginning their undergraduate degree. All of these volumes are introductory in the sense that they assume no, or very little, previous acquaintance with the subject, while aiming to take the reader through to the end of his or her first course on the topic they cover. For this reason the series will also appeal to those who encounter psychology in the course of their professional work: nurses, social workers, police and probation officers, speech therapists and medical students. Written in a clear and jargon-free style, each book generally includes a full (and in some cases annotated) bibliography and points the way explicitly to further reading on the subject covered.
Subjects: Compulsive behavior, Psychological aspects, Psychological aspects of Substance abuse, Substance abuse, Verslaving, Psychology, Sucht, Substance-Related Disorders, Psychologische aspecten, Psychologie, Therapy, Drogentherapie, Polytoxicomanie, Aspect psychologique, Comportement compulsif, Addiction, HEALTH & FITNESS, Diseases, Nervous System (incl. Brain), MEDICAL, Neurology, Addictive Behavior
