5.0 out of 5 stars Altho a difficult read this is a great teaching text

Althought the reading level is not easy, the information is extremely useful for drug counselors.

2.0 out of 5 stars Needs editing.
This book seemed like a good source of information about drugs. However, I have started to doubt how valid the information in it is because I noticed that Wikipedia is cited in two places. Wikipedia is not a reliable enough source to be cited in a textbook! Additionally, I found that a map showing statistics on alcohol use conflicted with the information that was in the...

This text provides informative and up to date information regarding a broad range of drug related topic. Althought the reading level is not easy, the information is extremely useful for drug counselors. The information presented regarding psychopharmacology provides an excellent base of preparation for the certification test used in many states. I highly recommend this text as well as many of the web site exercises.

This book seemed like a good source of information about drugs. However, I have started to doubt how valid the information in it is because I noticed that Wikipedia is cited in two places. Wikipedia is not a reliable enough source to be cited in a textbook! Additionally, I found that a map showing statistics on alcohol use conflicted with the information that was in the text that was discussing the same study results.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a college text, February 16, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book was required for a class in my masters program, and I have to say I felt like I was reading a high school text book, maybe an intro class for an undergrad degree. I do not recommend this book for graduate studies.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's a textbook..., January 27, 2012

This review is from: Drugs and Society (Paperback)
As good as one can hope for a textbook Delong with drugs and Alphonso. It's a book people should hope their teachers teach with. Easy IMO to my find and very informative. Good, as far as dry textbooks are concerned.

This review is from: Drugs and Society (Paperback)
The book was in good shape to be used. However I was not please with the shipping method. It took 3 days to ship priority in state when it should have only taken 1 or 2 days. Other than that I was pleased with the purchase

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is an excellent book for an excellent price. Very complete with everything you need to know to take the DANTES test Substance Abuse. The book has a lot of underlining in it but that was expected. Even with that you could not beat the price.
