This review is from: Drug Abuse Sourcebook: Basic Consumer Health Information About Illicit Substances Of Abuse And The Misuse Of Prescription And Over-the-counter Medications, Including Depress (Health Reference Series) (Library Binding)

The new second edition of Drug Abuse Sourcebook updates and expands details on illicit substances of abuse both over the counter and illegal, from depressants and hallucinogens to marijuana and more. From symptoms and effects both long- and short-term to prevention programs, addiction terms, and a directory of resources, chapters delve into all the physical, psychological and social ramifications of drug abuse, covering all the basics of intervention, treatment, and prognosis. An excellent library reference for libraries.
