“Much of our scientific effort in tackling the multifactorial nature of addiction has taken place within individual disciplines.
However, it has become increasingly clear that the complexity of addiction requires an integrated approach.
This Handbook is timely and exceptional, intelligently combining the latest research approaches and applying them to understanding and tackling the prodigious public health burden of addiction.
An authoritative resource, it establishes a comprehensive framework that will guide the field in the next era of addiction research.” John F.
