5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for Health and Physical Educ. Teachers!, September 2, 2000

By A Customer

I am the SADD advisor in our school building and used Section 13 "Substance Abuse." It has great lists to hand to my students at the start of every meeting. This book offers a way for teachers, parents, etc. to find quick answers to questions about everything from "Systems of the Body" to "Violence Prevention." I recommend this book to anyone, especially those who teach about health.
