ADDICTION TREATMENT: A STRENGTHS PERSPECTIVE, 5th Edition, covers biological, psychological and social aspects of alcohol and eating disorders, gambling and other addictions. 12-step and harm-reduction approaches are connected to show how clients are guided down paths tailored to their needs. Data from student surveys, including high school and college students, reveals experiences with alcohol, misuse of prescriptions, vaping, marijuana and other drugs.
