Download or read book Substance and Behavioral Addictions written by Steve Sussman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Substance and Behavioral Addictions: Concepts, Causes, and Cures presents the concepts, etiology, assessment, prevention, and cessation of substance (tobacco, alcohol, other drugs, and food) and behavioral (gambling, Internet, shopping, love, sex, exercise, and work) addictions. The text provides a novel and integrative appetitive motivation framework of addiction, while acknowledging and referencing multi-level influences on addiction, such as neurobiological, cognitive, and micro-social and macro-social/physical environmental. The book discusses concurrent and substitute addiction, and offers prevention and treatment solutions, which are presented from a more integrative perspective than traditional presentations. This is an ideal text for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, practitioners, and researchers.
Download or read book Alcohol Education written by David J. Hanson and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1996-11-30 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of a massive national investment in alcohol education, the evidence clearly demonstrates that our current efforts are overwhelmingly ineffective and are often counterproductive. The assessment of the effectiveness of alcohol programs over the past 15 years reveals that those based on the responsible-use approach tend to be superior to those based on the abstinence approach. Hanson puts the historical relationship between Americans and alcohol into perspective, discusses federal policies on alcohol that are highly ideological and biased, and advocates the development of responsible-use curricula that will prepare students to be, as adults, responsible consumers of alcohol. While alcohol has been praised as a sign of refinement, a source of relaxation, and a complement to good times, it has also been cursed as the cause of disease and death. The temperance movement, which taught that alcohol was poison and that moderation in its use was no more possible than moderation in murder, has greatly influenced American thought and is reflected in our abstinence-oriented approach to alcohol education. Current programs reflect not only these abstinence origins but the inclusion of drug education several decades ago. Hanson finds that, despite good intentions, evidence indicates that this approach has proved ineffective. He considers the strong and often mixed feelings Americans have toward alcohol that are reflected in ever-changing public policy and concludes that the development and evaluation of alcohol education programs should be based on the best scientific evidence available rather than on political ideology. Recommendations for change in alcohol education are presented, with the most important being that we must promote the development and evaluation of diverse responsible-use curricula with the goal of reducing alcohol abuse.

This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All across the United States, individuals, families, communities, and health care systems are struggling to cope with substance use, misuse, and substance use disorders. Substance misuse and substance use disorders have devastating effects, disrupt the future plans of too many young people, and all too often, end lives prematurely and tragically. Substance misuse is a major public health challenge and a priority for our nation to address. The effects of substance use are cumulative and costly for our society, placing burdens on workplaces, the health care system, families, states, and communities. The Report discusses opportunities to bring substance use disorder treatment and mainstream health care systems into alignment so that they can address a person's overall health, rather than a substance misuse or a physical health condition alone or in isolation. It also provides suggestions and recommendations for action that everyone-individuals, families, community leaders, law enforcement, health care professionals, policymakers, and researchers-can take to prevent substance misuse and reduce its consequences.
